Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm ≥70% silk, as discrepancies can lead to reclassification and penalties
• Include detailed yarn composition and knitting proofs in documentation to avoid disputes over 'knitted or crocheted' status
• Label products clearly with fiber content and country of origin per FTC and CBP rules to prevent holds at entry
