Import Tips

Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm silk predominance (over 50% by weight) for accurate classification under the silk subheading

Include detailed yarn composition and knitting specifications in commercial invoices to avoid reclassification to synthetic headings

Check for country-of-origin rules under silk fiber agreements; provide certificates for preferential duty treatment
