Import Tips
• Document degreasing process to prove no carbonization occurred, avoiding shift to 5101.11
• Declare clean yield accurately; duties based on absolute clean content minus allowable losses per US note (b)
• Segregate from finer wools in storage to prevent commingling and reclassification risks
