Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm 36%+ wool, as discrepancies can lead to reclassification and penalties
• Provide detailed invoices specifying wool percentage and artificial fiber type for CBP verification
• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as pure artificial fiber, which shifts to lower-duty 6204.53 codes
