Import Tips & Compliance

• Obtain third-party fiber analysis certificates to substantiate silk claims during customs valuation

• Ensure no pockets below waist or ribbed waistbands, as these exclude from Chapter 61 per notes

• Declare as 'men's' based on left-over-right closure; provide size charts if unisex design raises questions
