Import Tips

• Document breathability and windproof ratings to justify performance classification over general jackets

• Avoid garments with ribbed waistbands or low pockets, as they may redirect to 6201 or other headings

• Use commercial invoices specifying 'recreational performance outwear' to prevent undervaluation disputes
