Embroidered Cotton Men's Polo Shirt
A classic men's polo shirt made from 100% cotton fabric wholly formed and cut in the United States from US-formed yarns, then sewn in a CBTPA beneficiary country like Honduras with embroidered logo on the chest. The embroidery process qualifies it for 9820.11.03 treatment, distinguishing it from standard 9802.00.80 assembly. This processing adds decorative value while maintaining US fabric origin requirements.
