Import Tips

• Verify the felt is derived from heading 6501 hat bodies, hoods, or plateaux with supplier documentation to confirm classification

• Label fiber content accurately (e.g

• 100% wool felt) per FTC rules to avoid misclassification penalties

• Check for prohibited trims like certain plastics that could shift to Chapter 39 headings
