Import Tips
• Verify wool content exceeds 50% via lab tests for accurate Chapter 61 classification and fiber labeling under FTC rules
• Include commercial invoices detailing HTS 6104.61.0020, yarn count, and country of origin to avoid misclassification as trousers
• Avoid common pitfalls like undeclared animal hair blends, which could shift to synthetic headings and alter duties
