Import Tips
• Use independent lab analysis for animal hair content to prevent disputes over the 23% threshold
• Declare as 'knitted or crocheted' with construction details; photos or samples aid verification
• Watch for ensemble packaging pitfalls—if paired with upper garments, it may classify under 6114
