Import Tips
• Verify wool content exceeds 50% with lab tests for accurate classification under wool-specific subheading
• Obtain certificates of origin for potential duty reductions under free trade agreements like those with Turkey or India
• Avoid misclassification as 'hand-hooked' which may shift to other subheadings; document knotting process
