Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm at least 36% wool, as declarations must match exactly to avoid penalties

• Include detailed invoices specifying wool percentage and artificial fiber type (e.g

• viscose, acetate) for CBP review

• Watch for common pitfalls like classifying as 100% artificial if wool is understated, leading to wrong duty rates
