Import Tips
• Provide detailed process descriptions confirming stitch-bonding to differentiate from knitted fabrics
• Label as 'fine animal hair' with species origin (e.g
• alpaca) for accurate statistical reporting under (414)
• Avoid bulk packaging that could lead to classification as raw fiber under Chapter 51
