Import Tips
• Provide technical specs on compression levels and materials to confirm girdle function over regular hosiery
• Use HTS 6212.20.00 explicitly on entry docs; mislabeling as 'underwear' risks reclassification
• Check for prohibited substances in dyes, as shapewear often faces stricter REACH-like compliance
