Import Tips

• Include commercial invoices specifying exact wool/hair percentage and fiber origin to meet US Customs fiber content requirements

• Avoid common pitfall of incomplete set packaging; ensure all components shipped together for retail sale to qualify as ensemble

• Check for metal thread allowances per Chapter notes if decorative; declare any to prevent undervaluation issues
