Import Tips
• Verify all ensemble components match in fabric construction, color, style, and size per Chapter 62 notes to avoid reclassification as separate garments
• Include detailed commercial invoices specifying fiber content (e.g
• 100% polyester) and retail set packaging to meet man-made fiber restraint requirements
• Check visa requirements for category 642; common pitfall is incomplete documentation leading to quotas or higher duties
