National Import Specialist Camille Ferraro viewed samples of all of these garments during a visit to your showroom.

In addition, the designated textile and apparel categories may be subdivided into parts. If so, visa and quota requirements applicable to the subject merchandise may be affected and should also be verified at the time of shipment.
