Import Tips

Verify fiber content exceeds 70% synthetic fibers via lab tests for accurate Chapter 62 classification; blends under 50% may shift to cotton headings

Provide detailed invoices specifying 'skirt, not swimwear' to avoid misclassification as swimwear under Chapter 62 exclusions

Label garments with country of origin and care instructions per FTC rules to prevent CBP holds at entry
