Import Tips

• Obtain certificates of origin and fiber analysis reports to substantiate animal hair claims during customs review

• Label garments clearly with fiber breakdown (e.g

• '60% polyester, 40% cashmere') to meet U.S. labeling laws

• Watch for ensemble classification if sold with matching jacket; separate packaging prevents suit-type grouping
