Import Tips

Conduct pre-shipment fiber burns tests to prove silk content, as visual inspection often fails CBP audits

Avoid bulk packaging misclassification—retail-ready dresses must not mimic industrial shipments

Declare exact silk waste usage if applicable, as it counts toward the 30% threshold per tariff terms
