Import Tips
• Confirm woven construction via swatch samples; knitted cardigans shift to Chapter 61
• Avoid packaging as ensembles with pants; separate import prevents 6211 track/ski suit misclassification
• Use commercial invoices specifying 'babies' garments, height <86cm' to support 6209 priority classification
