Import Tips

• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% man-made fibers via lab tests to avoid reclassification to cotton headings

• Ensure 'boys'' sizing (under age 15 or chest <40") and dress style with collar/opening for proper 6205 classification

• Label with country of origin, care instructions, and fiber content per FTC rules to prevent CBP holds
