Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm under 36% cotton or equivalent for cotton restraint applicability; declare accurately to avoid reclassification

• Include commercial invoice with HTS code, fabric composition, and country of origin; ensure men's sizing and left-over-right closure per Chapter notes

• Watch for common pitfalls like mislabeling as cotton (6205.20) or knitted versions (6105); obtain quota clearance if under 340 restraint
