Import Tips
• Provide certificates from Philippine handicraft boards confirming hand-looming and cultural folklore elements
• Label as 100% man-made fibers; common issue is mislabeling blends leading to audits
• Ensure no below-waist pockets to stay in 6205; document closure direction for men's classification
