Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm ≥70% silk, as discrepancies lead to reclassification and penalties
• Include detailed composition labels and country-of-origin certificates for silk authentication
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as lower-duty synthetics; ensure knitted structure documentation
