Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm ≥36% wool or fine animal hair, as this determines classification from lower wool subheadings

• Label garments clearly with fiber composition and care instructions per FTC rules to avoid CBP scrutiny at entry

• Ensure country-of-origin marking on trousers; common pitfall is incomplete documentation for performance features like waterproofing
