Import Tips
• Verify 100% cashmere fiber content via lab tests, as blends over 5% other fibers shift to 6110.12.1035
• Label garments with fiber content, country of origin, and care instructions per FTC and CBP rules to avoid detention
• Ensure no forbidden features like waist pockets or ribbed hems, or reclassify under 6110.30 for man-made fibers
