Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm ≥36% wool or fine animal hair, as misdeclaration can lead to penalties
• Include detailed invoices specifying exact wool percentage and synthetic fiber type for CBP review
• Avoid classifying as pure wool if synthetic dominates to prevent reclassification under 6203.42
