Import Tips

• Conduct fiber content analysis certificate for silk waste verification; CBP often tests high-value silk claims

• Specify 'recreational performance' in entry docs to avoid industrial garment misclassification

• Avoid sets with upper body jackets to prevent ensemble rules under 6203/6204 notes
