Import Tips & Compliance

• Document commercial cleaning loss allowances (up to 15% of clean content) in entry paperwork

• Bond requirements apply only for special uses; standard entry for this apparel-grade wool

• Avoid reclassification by confirming no carding—inspect for alignment/combing evidence
