Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm ≥36% wool, as blends must meet the wool threshold for this subheading
• Provide detailed invoices specifying vest construction, excluding any knitted elements to avoid Chapter 61 reclassification
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as outerwear; ensure no pockets below waist to stay out of 6205/6206
