Import Tips

• Verify cotton content exceeds 70% via lab tests for Category 342 restraints; declare accurately to avoid quotas

• Include commercial invoice with fiber composition, country of origin, and HTS details; ensure right-over-left closure labeling

• Watch for misclassification as dresses if hemline too short; common pitfall is blending with synthetic fibers pushing to non-cotton subheading
