Import Tips

• Ensure the sweater is classified as a pullover, not a cardigan, since open-front garments may fall under a different tariff item

• Be prepared to provide a certificate of origin if claiming preferential tariff treatment under a free trade agreement

• Verify that the wool is not subject to any import restrictions or quotas
