Import Tips

• Provide weave analysis confirming non-jacquard to prevent misclassification into higher-duty jacquard categories

• Label rolls clearly with exact width and silk percentage to facilitate quick customs inspection

• Beware of silk waste blends; ensure documentation proves pure silk or silk waste over 85% threshold
