Import Tips & Compliance

Use detailed commercial invoices specifying 'corduroy' wale count (e.g

8-11 per inch) to support subheading 20.36 classification

Comply with OSHA labeling if marketed for work; test for flammability under 16 CFR 1610 for apparel

Avoid mixing lots with different panel counts (340 men's)—separate entries prevent reclassification
