Import Tips
• Document spandex as man-made fiber in fiber content labels; elastic content doesn't change classification if under 50%
• Confirm divided skirt design lacks bibs or braces to stay within ensemble lower garment provisions
• Pre-validate with CBP rulings for blend ratios to prevent disputes over cotton/man-made thresholds
