Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm ≥36% wool, as misdeclaration can lead to reclassification or penalties
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'girls' sizing (442) and skirt measurements to avoid disputes on garment type
• Ensure no pockets below waist or ribbed waistband, as these exclude from Chapter 62 headings 6205/6206
