Import Tips
• Specify 'divided skirt' on invoices to distinguish from trousers; misdescription leads to reclassification pitfalls
• Ensure no bibs or braces, as those shift to overalls subheadings; retail packaging must show set cohesion
• Right-over-left front closure confirms women's/girls'; ambiguous cut defaults to women's per notes
