Import Tips

• Obtain mill test certificates proving average fiber diameter ≤18.5 microns to support classification and avoid audits

• Check for prohibited substances like azo dyes in wool; comply with REACH-like US regs for textile imports

• Document as individual trousers, not bib overalls or shorts, with photos and specs to prevent misclassification
