Import Tips
• Label products clearly as 'incontinence briefs' not undergarments to avoid Chapter 62 clothing classification errors
• Provide Certificates of Analysis proving artificial fiber dominance to justify tariff rate 239
• Anticipate CBP scrutiny on absorbency claims; retain test data showing sanitary napkin-like performance
