Import Tips
• Verify fiber content through lab testing to confirm at least 36% wool, as discrepancies can lead to reclassification or penalties
• Provide detailed weave specifications and dyeing process documentation to avoid disputes over 'dyed' status
• Ensure labeling meets FTC standards for wool content disclosure to prevent import holds
