Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm at least 23% wool or fine animal hair, as misdeclaration can lead to reclassification
• Provide detailed yarn composition documentation; synthetic fibers must predominate but wool threshold met
• Avoid common pitfalls like classifying as swimwear if not designed for water use
