Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify silk content via lab testing (85%+ by weight) with certificates for customs; misdeclaration risks penalties
• Include detailed textile composition labels and country-of-origin docs, as silk imports face quotas under MFA remnants
• Avoid pitfalls like classifying as plastic-surfaced (4202.92.31) if silk dominates; use GSP for duty-free if eligible
