Import Tips

• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% artificial fibers via lab tests for accurate classification; ensure country-of-origin labeling complies with FTC rules

• Avoid misdeclaring as part of an ensemble to prevent duty reassessment

• Provide detailed invoices specifying skirt-only shipment
