Import Tips
• Verify clean yield documentation per US note (b) to confirm wool content exceeds 85% after cleaning
• Provide mill test certificates showing carded wool processing and weight under 300 g/m² to avoid reclassification
• Label fiber content accurately; common pitfall is misstating weight, leading to audits
