Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm ≥70% silk, as under-declaration can lead to penalties
• Include detailed yarn composition and country-of-origin certificates for silk authentication
• Avoid classifying as lower-duty man-made fiber if silk predominates; common pitfall in blends
