Import Tips
• Provide mill certificates or lab reports proving wool content to avoid audits and potential duty reassessment
• Classify based on outer surface fabric; inner linings don't affect primary fiber determination
• Watch for seasonal imports—ensure no swimwear features to stay out of excluded categories
