Import Tips

• Document as swim-related without being swimwear itself to stay in 6211; avoid 6211.11 swimwear confusion

• Specify alpaca as fine animal hair with certificates; blends can shift to man-made subheadings

• Check for right-over-left closure if unisex, defaulting to women's per notes—reclassify accordingly
