Import Tips

Verify silk content exceeds 70% by weight via lab testing; declarations must match invoices to avoid penalties

Provide detailed fabric composition and country-of-origin certificates, as silk imports require additional scrutiny under textile agreements

Avoid misclassifying as swimwear (6211.12) if not water-resistant; common pitfall is overlooking closure direction for gender classification
