Import Tips

• Verify fabric origin certificates confirming classification under 5903 (e.g

• Gore-Tex) to avoid reclassification to standard apparel headings

• Label garments clearly with fiber content (100% nylon with PU coating) and country of origin to meet U.S

• Customs fiber content rules

• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as 'rainwear' under 6201, which requires specific design criteria; document performance features
