Import Tips
• Submit coating analysis reports confirming 5903 classification to prevent shifts to uncoated nylon headings
• Avoid common error of declaring as 'vests' under 6210.40; specify performance use in entry docs
• Check for country-of-origin marking; performance gear often scrutinized for transshipment
