Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 50% wool or fine animal hair via lab tests for accurate classification under 6205.90
• Include commercial invoice detailing HTS code, wool origin, and men's sizing to avoid reclassification
• Watch for blending pitfalls; if synthetic fibers dominate, it shifts to 6205.30, increasing duties
