Import Tips

• Verify fiber content is over 70% synthetic fibers via lab tests to confirm Chapter 62 classification and avoid reclassification to cotton headings

• Label dresses clearly with fiber composition, country of origin, and care instructions per FTC rules to prevent CBP holds

• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as single-color if weave shows distinct multi-colors, which triggers this subheading
