Import Tips
• Distinguish silk waste from pure silk via invoices and mill certificates, as both qualify but require precise weight percentage documentation
• Inspect for average stitch density over 10 per cm in each direction to confirm it's not excluded under men's shirt notes (applicable analogously)
• Use HTS advisory rulings for borderline silk waste blends to preempt disputes at entry
