Import Tips
• Use invoices specifying exact percentages; CBP may require affidavits if wool content is borderline
• Ensure right-over-left closure for women's classification; left-over-right risks men's heading
• Watch for undervaluation penalties; declare retail value accurately for blended luxury fabrics
