Import Tips
• Verify wool content exceeds 50% via lab testing for accurate classification under 6505.00.40; blends may shift to man-made fiber subheadings
• Include fiber content labels and country of origin declarations to avoid CBP reclassification or penalties
• Avoid importing worn or toy berets, as they fall outside Chapter 65 per notes
