Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm 'other textile materials' classification, as man-made fiber blends may shift to 6205.30
• Provide detailed invoices specifying construction (woven, not knitted) and ensure no prohibited features like waist pockets
• Label shirts clearly with fiber composition and country of origin to avoid delays in CBP examination
