Import Tips
• Document exact cashmere content with invoices, as fine animal hair blends require precise declaration
• Scour fabric samples to measure true weight post-sizing per Chapter 52 U.S. notes for accurate g/m²
• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as apparel if sold by the meter; specify 'for cutting' on docs
