Import Tips

Document exact silk fiber content (e.g

100% mulberry silk) with lab tests; pitfalls include blends exceeding silk thresholds

Confirm corresponding sizes between top and skirt to qualify as ensemble; separate sizing may trigger individual HTS codes

Use customs rulings for complex silk weaves; ensure no metal thread exceeds ornamental limits per chapter notes
