Import Tips
• Provide laboratory test results certifying clean yield and absence of carbonization to avoid reclassification
• File a bond if intending use as 'wool for special uses' to qualify for potential duty relief
• Verify wool origin documentation as Merino exceeds 46s fineness, disqualifying special use status
