Import Tips
• Clarify the fibre content on all documentation, as the term 'cheesecloth' may mislead inspectors into expecting cotton
• Provide a fibre analysis certificate to confirm the artificial staple fibre composition
• Verify the thread count does not exceed 33 per cm², as higher counts may lead to reclassification
