Import Tips
• Document yarn sourcing and blending ratios with mill certificates to substantiate wool content claims during CBP review
• Ensure no metal threads exceed norms unless declared, as Chapter 61 allows but requires specification
• Separate shipments from lower-body garments to avoid accidental ensemble classification under chapter notes
