Import Tips

• Differentiate camel hair from wool via spectrographic testing; mislabeling leads to penalties

• Use detailed packing lists noting 'quilt cover for bed use' to prevent reclassification as apparel

• Monitor CITES if sourcing from endangered camelids; standard documentation suffices for common breeds
