Import Tips
• Provide detailed invoices breaking down bikini top and bottom values separately to avoid set classification issues
• Confirm no pockets or ribbed waistbands per notes for Chapter 62; otherwise, may shift to other garment headings
• Use HTS advisory rulings for blended fabrics if man-made content is under 70% to prevent misclassification
