Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% man-made fibers via lab tests to confirm Chapter 62 classification and avoid reclassification to cotton headings
• Include detailed care labels and country-of-origin markings as per US FTC requirements to prevent CBP holds at entry
• Watch for 'track suit' misclassification if sold with matching pants; document as individual outerwear to stay in 6211
