Import Tips
• Conduct fiber diameter testing via objective measurement methods acceptable to CBP to avoid reclassification
• Include care labels specifying 'dry clean only' for wool to meet US labeling standards
• Watch for ensembles; if sold with matching trousers/skirt as a set, may require suit classification instead
