Import Tips
• Verify plastic composition via lab testing to confirm non-textile covering and avoid misclassification under 9606.21.20
• Include detailed invoices specifying button size, hole count, and end-use as garment fasteners for smooth customs clearance
• Watch for common pitfalls like undervaluation; declare exact quantity and value per gross to prevent penalties
