Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests as silk requires specific declarations; mislabeling leads to penalties
• Obtain textile visas from exporting countries if applicable; ensure country-of-origin markings
• Avoid common pitfalls like classifying as cotton blends—pure silk falls strictly under 'other textiles'
