Import Tips
• Verify silk content exceeds 70% by weight with lab test certificates to avoid reclassification to lower silk headings
• Include detailed fiber composition labels and country-of-origin documentation for smooth CBP clearance
• Watch for undervaluation pitfalls; silk's premium pricing requires accurate invoices to prevent audits
