Import Tips
• Verify fiber content is 100% silk or silk waste via lab tests; certificates of authenticity from suppliers prevent reclassification
• Label garments clearly with country of origin, fiber content, and care instructions to meet US FTC and CBP requirements
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as cotton blends, which shifts to lower silk subheadings and incurs penalties
