Import Tips
• Include yarn composition certificates; silk content must be precisely documented for high-duty silk subheadings
• Label clearly as 'knitted' to stay in Chapter 61; woven ponchos fall under different duties
• Watch for ensemble rules—if sold with matching pieces, it could be reclassified as part of 6104
