Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm ≥36% wool or fine animal hair, as this determines classification from lower synthetic-only subheadings

• Ensure girls' sizing (under 448 statistical suffix) with body measurements not exceeding youth dimensions; provide growth charts in documentation

• Label as recreational performance outerwear, avoiding industrial claims to prevent reclassification under Chapter 62 track suits
