Import Tips

Verify the trousers are imported with matching ski jacket as part of a ski ensemble to qualify under 6211; separate imports may shift classification

Provide documentation proving man-made fiber content exceeds 70% and ski-specific features like waterproofing for 647 quota compliance

Avoid common pitfalls by ensuring no retail packaging separates components, as this could reclassify as individual garments under 6203
