Import Tips
• Document fine animal hair (e.g
• merino) content precisely; use invoicing and lab reports to support 459 statistical suffix
• Ensure right-over-left closure for girls' classification per Chapter notes; misclosure risks reclassification to men's
• Package as individual items, not sets, to avoid ensemble duties under 6211.41; bulk import common pitfall
