Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm wool or fine animal hair composition, as blends may shift classification
• Label garments clearly with fiber content and country of origin to meet US customs and FTC requirements
• Avoid common pitfalls like misclassifying as knitted (Chapter 61) by ensuring woven construction
