According to the US "textile fiber product identification act" and the "wool product labelling act", the United States must attach labels or labels to imported textiles and clothing. Labels must be marked in English, and must comply with the following rules: the label of fiber components must be made of non trademark fiber names, and should be arranged in order of weight according to the percentage of weight. Fiber names can be used by the Federal Trade Commission or the International Standardization Organization for approval of fiber names; trademark names can be used together with non trademark fiber names; fiber components can be marked on the back of the label, but relevant information must be easily found; fiber less than 5% of total fiber weight should not be identified by name, but should be listed as other fibers, except for fibers with specific functions.

With regard to the origin labels of products, the customs and Border Protection Agency of the United States stipulates that unless there are precedents to allow other markings, all garments must be marked with labels.

If it is men's T-shirt, women's loose body.

shirt

The coat of origin, sweater, dress and similar garment, the origin label must be placed in the middle of the neckline of the garment and in the middle of the two shoulder seam.

As for

trousers

And slacks,

shorts

Labels such as skirts and skirts should be placed in a prominent position, such as the inner side of the belt.

The label of origin can be sewn on the coat; the men's dress shirt with pparent polythene bags should be sewn on the neckline, so that the final purchaser can see clearly without removing the package. If clothing and belts are produced in the same country or region and imported and sold as a complete set of garments, only the labels of origin must be attached to the garments, but the origin of the belts should be reasonably marked. The neckties and scarves that belong to the decorations must be labeled with water labels, and if the neckties or scarves are used as accessories and women's loose shirts, they are both imported and sold, and both of them adopt the same cloth and design, and only the loosely shirt should be added to the logo. Men's and women's wear two head or three head suits, such as a complete set of business, and all the clothes are made in the same country.

In addition, the origin name must be preceded by similar words such as Madein or Productof, so that the final purchaser can see clearly so as not to be misled.

Of course, the Border Protection Bureau of the customs also agreed that under certain circumstances, the logo of direct screen printing should be accepted on the cloth inside the neckline of the garment.

In addition, double sided clothing is also exempt from collar label requirements.

For example, a women's short vest with double sides can be attached to the underside seam of the vest and permanently washed, and the ribbon label fastened to the neckline.

In addition to fiber composition and origin, clothing must be accompanied by permanent labels providing nursing instructions and names of importers, distributors, retailers or foreign producers.

According to regulations, importers, distributors and retailers may use the RN or WPL numbers issued by the Federal Trade Commission, but only enterprises in the United States can obtain and use RN numbers. Foreign producers can use their names or American importers, distributors or RN or WPL numbers directly involved in product distribution.

An enterprise may recognize its trademark name, but the trade name must be registered in the US Patent Office, and the enterprise shall also provide a copy of the trademark registration certificate to the Federal Trade Commission before using the trademark.
