Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm ≥70% silk, as discrepancies can lead to reclassification and penalties
• Include detailed commercial invoices specifying HTS code, silk percentage, and country of origin for preferential duty treatment
• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as 'pure silk' if blended; ensure 'Made in [Country]' tags comply with US FTC rules
