• Verify fiber content is 100% cotton via lab tests; blends over 2% man-made fiber shift to 6205.20.2065
• Ensure 'boys'' sizing for height under typical youth range; include weight declaration under 340g/m²
• Label with country of origin and care instructions; avoid misclassification as adult shirts (6205.20.2015)
