Import Tips
• Conduct fiber content verification; denim must be over 50% cotton to avoid synthetic reclassification
• Use HTS statistical suffix 342 precisely for women's apparel to match CBP reporting requirements
• Package individually for retail, not bulk, to prevent set classification under ensemble rules
