Import Tips

• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% artificial fibers via lab tests for accurate classification under artificial fibers subheading

• Include performance specs like water resistance in invoices to justify 'recreational performance outerwear' status and avoid reclassification

• Ensure labeling complies with FTC rules on fiber content and country of origin to prevent CBP holds
