Import Tips

• Verify clean yield documentation to confirm at least 85% wool content per US notes, as discrepancies can lead to reclassification

• Provide mill test certificates showing carded wool composition to avoid disputes over fiber processing

• Label goods clearly with fiber content to comply with FTC textile rules and prevent penalties
