Import Tips
• Provide lab test reports verifying silk content exceeds 85% by weight to avoid reclassification
• Declare as 'hand-made' with artisan provenance documentation, as machine-made shifts to other subheadings
• Check for prohibited dyes or treatments that could trigger Chapter 59 exclusions
