Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm at least 36% wool or fine animal hair, as required for this subheading; discrepancies can lead to reclassification

• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as ensembles if not put up for retail sale as a set; separate components may shift to other headings
