Import Tips
• Verify knitting construction via lab tests to confirm classification under Chapter 65, avoiding misclassification as woven hats
• Include detailed fiber content labels (e.g
• 100% wool) on packaging to meet textile import documentation requirements
• Watch for country-of-origin rules; wool from certain regions may qualify for duty preferences under trade agreements
