Import Tips & Compliance

• Provide mill certificates confirming fine animal hair composition to avoid disputes over 'wool' vs. coarser varieties

• Label with care instructions per FTC rules, noting wool content to support 6111 classification

• Watch for over-tightening features like ribbed hems that might disqualify from similar adult headings but are allowed here
