Import Tips
• Require supplier affidavits certifying pure cashmere to combat frequent adulteration claims at customs
• Declare value accurately; undervaluation of luxury cashmeres triggers audits and penalties
• Ship in rolls, not finished throws, to preserve fabric classification over apparel/home goods
