Import Tips
• Verify silk content with lab tests or certificates of origin, as blends over 70% silk may still qualify but require precise labeling
• Label garments clearly with fiber content, country of origin, and care instructions per FTC and CBP requirements to avoid delays
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as cotton; silk duties differ significantly, impacting landed costs
