Import Tips
• Provide origin certificates proving silk authenticity to avoid reclassification and duties under textile quotas
• Label garments clearly with fiber content and care instructions to meet US FTC requirements and prevent holds
• Check for bilateral agreements affecting silk imports, as wool restraint status may trigger additional safeguards
