Import Tips
• Provide care label with exact artificial fiber percentage; viscose must dominate for 6204 classification
• Avoid pockets below waist or ribbed waistbands to prevent reclassification under men's shirts in 6205
• Document as individual dress, not ensemble, to stay in dress subheading rather than 6204 ensemble codes
