Import Tips
• Use GSP or other FTA certificates if sourcing from eligible countries to potentially reduce duties on qualifying silk products
• Document braid construction photos and material specs in entry files to counter potential challenges on 'wholly or in part of braid'
• Avoid bulk packaging that mimics commercial sets, as retail-ready individual handbags get different treatment from components
