Import Tips
• Verify fur origin with CITES documentation if using protected species like beaver to avoid wildlife trade violations
• Label fiber content accurately as 'fur felt' to comply with FTC textile rules and prevent misclassification
• Inspect for any blocking or brims upon arrival, as shaped items shift to heading 6502
