Import Tips
• Verify fabric composition via lab tests to confirm woven construction, avoiding reclassification to knitted swimwear in Chapter 61
• Ensure labeling indicates 'men's' based on left-over-right front closure per Chapter 62 notes
• Provide swimwear-specific documentation like fabric durability certificates to prevent delays at customs
