Import Tips
• Obtain certificates authenticating cashmere content, as U.S
• Customs scrutinizes animal hair claims to prevent misdeclaration of blends
• Ensure trousers lack bibs or braces, as bib and brace overalls would shift to different statistical suffixes
• Document matching sizes and styles across components to substantiate ensemble status over separate garment imports
