Import Tips

• Verify all ensemble components match in fabric construction, color, composition, and size per Chapter Note (b) to avoid reclassification as separate garments

• Provide lab test reports confirming 100% silk fiber content, as mislabeling leads to penalties under textile import rules

• Ensure retail packaging presentation; bulk shipments may shift to parts or individual garment headings
