Import Tips
• Verify clean yield documentation as per US notes, ensuring wool meets 12% moisture and low ash content standards
• Provide lab test reports confirming average fiber diameter ≤18.5 microns and exact weight per m²
• Avoid misdeclaration as lighter fabrics; common pitfall leads to reclassification and penalties
