Import Tips
• Verify the ensemble is presented as a set for retail sale with matching cotton fabric to avoid reclassification as separate garments
• Include documentation proving martial arts use, such as manufacturer specs, to support the specific subheading
• Check fiber content labels for 100% cotton compliance; blends may shift to other cotton ensemble codes
