Import Tips
• Conduct fiber burn tests or supplier affidavits to substantiate wool percentage; CBP may require this for wool-blend claims
• Ensure 'dry clean only' labels if wool content demands it, complying with 19 CFR textile labeling rules
• Watch for quota restrictions on wool blends; check current visas before large shipments to prevent port holds
