Import Tips
• Verify wool content exceeds 50% fine animal hair via lab testing to confirm classification under wool heading
• Provide weave certificates proving Wilton or velvet construction; misclassification as tufted risks re-assessment
• Not made up status requires import in rolls—cutting to size post-import avoids 'made up' duties
