Import Tips
• Verify wool content exceeds 50% for fine animal hair classification; obtain lab tests to confirm fiber composition
• Ensure garment matches ski-suit definition via texture and appearance; provide photos and specs to CBP for binding ruling
• Avoid misclassification as general outerwear by documenting ski-specific features like reinforced seams and insulation
