Import Tips
• Verify clean yield certification per US notes to confirm ≥85% fine animal hair content and exact weight under 270 g/m²
• Provide mill test reports or lab analysis for fiber composition to avoid reclassification during customs exam
• Label as 'wholly or in part of fine animal hair' and watch for common pitfalls like undervaluation in luxury fabrics
