Import Tips
• Confirm body height under 86cm for potential 6209 review, but these exceed for 6204; document age-appropriate sizing
• Provide origin certificates for silk to claim preferential duties; raw silk waste blends need waste verification
• Ensure no bib/brace elements, as those classify differently within 6204 trousers category
