Import Tips
• Verify silk content exceeds 70% by weight via lab testing for accurate classification; ensure labeling complies with FTC textile rules
• Common pitfall: misclassifying as lower silk blends under 6211.49.10
• Watch for blending with synthetics that could shift to man-made fiber headings
