Import Tips
• Verify wool content exceeds de minimis thresholds to confirm subheading 6116.99.95 applicability and wool restraint quota (431)
• Provide detailed fiber composition lab tests in documentation to avoid reclassification to synthetic-dominated gloves
• Monitor quota availability via WTO or bilateral agreements as wool restraints can limit imports during peak seasons
