Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 50% wool or fine animal hair via lab tests for accurate classification under (448) subheading
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'trouser parts' to avoid misclassification as finished garments under 6203
• Ensure no retail packaging to prevent reclassification as ensembles or complete articles
