Men's Cotton Dress Shirt from Japan
A classic men's dress shirt made from 100% U.S.-formed cotton fabric, cut in the US and a CBTPA beneficiary country like Honduras, then sewn in Honduras using U.S.-formed thread. This qualifies under HTS 9820.11.33 because it uses the 'yarn-forward' rule where all components originate from U.S. yarns and fabrics, assembled in a designated Caribbean Basin country.
