Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm ≥23% wool, as discrepancies can lead to reclassification or penalties
• Include detailed composition labels and country-of-origin certificates in documentation for CBP review
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as 100% synthetic to evade duties; accurate invoices prevent audits
