Import Tips
• Verify clean yield documentation for wool content to ensure compliance with US note definitions and avoid reclassification
• Provide weave structure certificates confirming mixed with man-made filaments and weight over 300 g/m²
• Label fiber composition accurately per FTC rules; common pitfall is under-declaring wool for lower duties
