Import Tips
• Verify silk content exceeds 70% by weight via lab testing; provide certificates of authenticity to avoid reclassification
• Ensure labeling complies with FTC fiber content rules and country of origin marking for knitted apparel
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as woven (Chapter 62) which changes duty rates significantly
