Import Tips

Verify fiber content with lab tests to confirm 100% cashmere from Kashmir goats, as mislabeling can lead to reclassification

Ensure no drawstrings or ribbed waistbands at the bottom to avoid exclusion from heading 6110 per chapter notes

Provide detailed knitting specs and garment diagrams to CBP for smooth clearance, avoiding common pitfalls like undervaluation
