Import Tips

• Verify the garment lacks pockets below the waist and ribbed waistbands to confirm exclusion from 6205/6206; include lab test reports on fiber content

• Provide documentation proving end-use in hospitals, clinics, or labs (e.g

• buyer letters or specs) to justify the (640) statistical suffix

• Ensure labeling indicates single-use and protective purpose; common pitfall is classifying as general apparel under 6205 if not documented for contaminated areas
