Import Tips
• Verify fiber composition via lab tests to confirm 'other textile materials' status, avoiding reclassification to man-made fiber headings
• Include care labels specifying washing instructions as required for intimate apparel; ensure country-of-origin marking
• Watch for undervaluation pitfalls—provide invoices showing silk blend value to prevent customs disputes
