Import Tips

• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% man-made fibers via lab tests to confirm category 635 restrictions and avoid reclassification

• Include detailed invoices specifying 'suit-type jacket' and woven construction; declare as non-knitted to prevent Chapter 61 shifts

• Monitor quantitative limits under 635; obtain visas or certificates for origin countries like China or India to avoid penalties
