Import Tips
• Obtain supplier affidavits confirming fine animal hair type (cashmere) and micron measurement per chapter definitions
• Ensure weight declaration matches exactly; exceeding 200g/m² reclassifies to higher weight subheading
• Beware of misdeclaration as 'wool' instead of 'fine animal hair'—cashmere requires specific note compliance
