Import Tips

• Obtain silk waste documentation if blended; blending below 70% risks reclassification and additional duties

• Use detailed invoices specifying HTS, silk percentage, and value per unit to facilitate entry filing

• Check for right-over-left closure to confirm men's classification; ambiguous cuts default to women's headings
