Import Tips
• Verify silk content exceeds 70% by weight via lab testing; provide fiber content labels compliant with FTC rules
• Ensure ensemble components match in fabric, color, and size per Chapter 62 notes to avoid reclassification as separate garments
• Declare as a set for retail sale; common pitfall is importing components separately, triggering different duties
