Import Tips
• Provide invoices detailing exact wool percentage and performance features to prevent reclassification during CBP review
• Ensure right-over-left closure design for women's classification per Chapter 62 notes
• Watch for pitfalls in ensemble packaging; separate sales avoid suit/ensemble rules
