Import Tips
• Verify silk content exceeds 70% via lab tests for accurate classification; blends under 70% shift to 6204.62
• Label fiber content per FTC rules and provide mill certificates for silk origin to avoid reclassification
• Ensure no bib or brace features, as those may qualify as overalls under the same subheading but require separate documentation
