Import Tips

• Verify silk content exceeds 70% via lab tests or supplier certificates to confirm classification under silk provisions

• Label products with fiber content and country of origin per FTC and CBP rules to avoid misclassification penalties

• Avoid common pitfalls like importing as sets; individual ties classify here, but bundled with shirts may shift to ensemble rules
