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
