Import Tips
• Verify garment's ski-specific features like waterproofing and insulation via lab tests to justify 6211 classification over general jackets
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'ski jacket' and fabric specs; common pitfall is classifying as 6202.40 if not proven for skiing
• Ensure right-over-left closure for women's classification per Chapter 62 notes
