Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm silk composition for accurate duty rates and labeling
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'cords and tassels' to avoid misclassification as trimmings under Chapter 58
• Check for prohibited substances in dyes, as textile imports face strict chemical regulations
