Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab tests as silk classification requires proof of natural protein fiber composition to avoid reclassification

• Include detailed invoices specifying 'women's undershirt' and right-over-left closure to confirm gender classification per chapter notes

• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as knitted; ensure woven construction to stay in Chapter 62
