Import Tips
• Use AATCC testing standards for precise wool percentage documentation to support 6204.39.20 classification
• Include care labels specifying dry cleaning for wool blends to meet FTC import labeling rules
• Avoid bundling with trousers in packaging, as that could trigger ensemble classification under 6204 notes
