Import Tips

Verify water resistance via AATCC or ISO tests; not fully waterproof to avoid 6204.63.12+ subheadings

Label fiber content accurately (e.g

100% nylon) and country of origin per FTC and CBP rules

Avoid misclassification as swimwear (6211.11) by ensuring non-swim design; document recreational use
