Import Tips
• Provide assembly diagrams showing integration into jackets; pitfall is classifying as incomplete jackets under 6201 if too assembled
• Label clearly as 'jacket storm flap parts' with material specs; ensure compliance with flammability standards for apparel parts
• Bulk shipments require packing lists distinguishing from finished goods to prevent valuation disputes
