Apparel & Textile Industry

Redefining Borders with Expert Perspective.

Apparel & Textile Industry

The U.S. apparel and textile industry operates in a highly regulated market, subject to customs duties, trade agreements, labeling laws, and environmental standards. Companies involved in manufacturing, importing, and distributing clothing, footwear, and textiles must comply with CBP (Customs and Border Protection) regulations, FTC labeling requirements, and trade policies such as USMCA and CAFTA-DR to ensure smooth and legal operations.

At Lexnova USA, we provide legal solutions tailored for fashion brands, textile manufacturers, importers, and retailers, ensuring compliance with import/export laws, intellectual property protections, and ethical sourcing regulations.
