Frequently Asked Questions
What certifications do I need to import apparel from India to the US?
For adult apparel: you need fiber content labeling (FTC Textile Act), care instruction labels, country of origin ("Made in India"), and an RN number. For children's apparel (under 12): CPSC testing is mandatory — flammability testing (16 CFR 1610), lead content testing, and a Children's Product Certificate (CPC) are required. We audit your specific product category and provide a full certification checklist.
How much does CPSC compliance testing cost for Indian-made apparel?
CPSC testing costs depend on product category and test suite. Typical costs at CPSC-accepted labs (Bureau Veritas, SGS, Intertek): flammability testing ($150–$300 per style), fiber content testing ($50–$100 per style), children's product lead testing ($200–$400 per product. Full compliance testing for a children's apparel line typically runs $800–$2,500 depending on styles and colors. Lab fees are quoted separately from our compliance management fee.
What is California Prop 65 and do I need to comply if selling on Amazon?
California Proposition 65 requires businesses to warn consumers about significant exposure to chemicals that cause cancer, birth defects, or reproductive harm. It applies if you sell in California — which, if selling on Amazon.com, you almost certainly do. Non-compliance can result in lawsuits from private enforcers (not just state regulators). We review your product materials and manufacturing process for Prop 65 chemicals and advise on labeling or reformulation.
How do I find the correct HS tariff code for my India-manufactured products?
HS code (Harmonized Tariff Schedule code) classification for Indian apparel and accessories is based on material, construction method, and end use. Incorrect classification is one of the top causes of US Customs delays and unexpected duty bills. We classify your products under the correct HTS code, calculate the applicable duty rate (which varies from 0% to 32% for fashion items), and document the classification rationale for your Customs broker.
What documents do I need for US customs clearance on India shipments?
For standard commercial imports from India: commercial invoice (with correct HS codes, declared values, and shipper/consignee details), packing list, bill of lading or airway bill, certificate of origin (for GSP duty preference if applicable), and ISF (Importer Security Filing, submitted 24 hours before vessel departure). For regulated products: compliance certificates, test reports, and FDA documentation as required. We prepare and review all of these.
