Import Tips

Verify the jacket's closure is right-over-left for women's classification per Chapter 62 notes; left-over-right may shift to men's headings

Ensure fiber content labeling complies with FTC rules, as polyester blends over 50% dictate 'other textile materials' status

Avoid misclassification as swimwear or ski-suits by excluding water-resistant or insulated features that match 6211.11/6211.12 definitions
