Import Tips
• Verify silk content via lab tests; US Customs requires certificates for claims over 70% silk to avoid reclassification
• Label garments with fiber content, care instructions, and country of origin per FTC and CBP rules
• Avoid common pitfalls like incomplete commercial invoices detailing HTS code and silk percentage
