Import Tips
• 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
