Import Tips

• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% man-made fibers via lab tests to confirm quota category 642 applicability

• Include commercial invoice detailing HTS code, fabric composition, and country of origin for CBP clearance

• Avoid misclassification as dresses by ensuring no integrated bodice; common pitfall is incomplete size labeling
