Import Tips
• Provide mill certificates proving fine animal hair content; misdeclaration as synthetic can shift to lower-duty categories
• Label with country of origin and fiber breakdown per FTC rules; watch for seasonal duty changes on wool imports
• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as 'jacket' under 6201—emphasize performance features in invoices
