Import Tips
• Verify fiber content is predominantly man-made (e.g
• polyester >85%) via lab tests to avoid reclassification to cotton headings
• Include commercial invoices specifying 'girls' sizing (youth sizes 4-16) and retail packaging to confirm Chapter 62 classification
• Avoid common pitfalls like missing country-of-origin labels, which can delay customs clearance for apparel imports
