Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests as silk requires precise declaration; mislabeling as man-made fiber risks reclassification
• Ensure country-of-origin labeling complies with FTC rules for sleepwear; provide invoices showing silk certification
• Avoid common pitfalls like importing with knit components, which shifts to Chapter 61; inspect for woven construction
