Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm ≥23% wool, as man-made fibers dominate but wool threshold dictates classification
• Ensure labeling complies with FTC textile rules, listing all fibers including wool percentage, country of origin, and care instructions
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as pure man-made (6106.20.20) which has different duties; include yarn analysis in documentation
