Default T-Shirt Tag - The country of origin?
Hi,

If a shirt was made in India, imported to the U.S. and I purchase it from a distributor in the U.S., can you retag it to say “Embellished in U.S.A.?” Or, would my tag have to say “Made In India.” I heard that “Made In India” is only required when the t-shirt comes over from India to the U.S. for import and tax laws.

Thanks,

Jerry

It would have to say Made in India if the garment was Made in India.

You can ADD "embellished in USA", but it would legally have to have Made in India on it.

More info here: Country of origin label a "must have"?

It's not just for import and tax reasons that country of origin has to be accurate, it's also for consumer information and protection.
