Import Tips
• Confirm the fabric is dyed, not printed, and that the vicuna is classified as fine animal hair
• Provide a fibre analysis to prove the polyester content is below 85% and the vicuna predominates among the animal fibres
• Be aware that vicuna may be subject to additional CITES permits if it is from a protected species
