Import Tips
• Document the fabric's weave density and yarn count, as these are critical for the sheeting classification
• Verify that the fabric is not 'made up' within the meaning of Section XI Note 7, such as being hemmed or cut to size
• If the fabric is for hospital use, confirm it does not fall under Chapter 30 as a sterile product
