Import Tips
• Provide weave structure diagrams to confirm it's not poplin/broadcloth per statistical note (c), avoiding misclassification
• Label rolls with exact wool percentage and dyeing method; customs often audits animal hair content claims
• Avoid bulk packaging without retail indicators to prevent shifts to lower-duty bulk categories
