Import Tips
• Submit lab analysis confirming cashmere as 'fine animal hair' and exact fiber diameter to comply with chapter definitions
• Label with precise weight per m² and clean yield percentage to prevent disputes over 200g/m² threshold
• Avoid retail packaging; import in bulk rolls to sidestep 'for retail sale' set classifications
