Import Tips

• Verify clean yield documentation per US note (b) to confirm wool/hair purity and avoid reclassification

• Provide lab tests proving ≥85% fine animal hair (e.g

• cashmere) content and weight ≤400 g/m²

• Label origin and fiber composition accurately to prevent penalties for misdeclared cashmere blends
