Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm ≥30% silk, as declarations must match HTS criteria to avoid reclassification
• Include detailed invoices specifying silk percentage and man-made fiber type; common pitfall is insufficient documentation leading to delays
• Ensure labels comply with FTC textile rules for fiber content and country of origin
