Import Tips
• Verify wool content exceeds 50% via lab tests for accurate classification under wool subheading; blends may shift to cotton or synthetic codes
• Include fiber content labels and country-of-origin certificates; wool imports often require additional declarations under US wool marking rules
• Avoid common pitfalls like misclassifying as shawls (6117) by confirming it's a made-up body garment, not an accessory
