Import Tips

• Verify fabric composition via lab tests to confirm 'other textile materials' status, avoiding misclassification into synthetic headings like 6204.53

• Ensure labeling includes fiber content, country of origin, and care instructions per FTC and CBP requirements

• Avoid common pitfalls like importing as sets; separate skirts from matching tops to prevent ensemble classification
