Import Tips
• Include height measurements to confirm 'girls'' sizing; garments for children over typical age may reclassify
• Obtain wool origin certificates; merino from Australia/New Zealand often qualifies for preferential tariffs
• Avoid bulk packaging; retail presentation prevents classification as unfinished goods
