Import Tips
• Verify silk content via lab tests certifying at least 70% by weight to avoid reclassification to lower silk subheadings
• Include fiber content labels and country-of-origin declarations, as silk imports require precise documentation under textile rules
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as 'other textile materials' which could trigger audits or penalties
