Import Tips
• Ensure the fabric is presented as continuous lengths or pieces, not as finished shoelaces, to qualify as narrow woven fabric
• Declare the cotton content and width (≤30 cm) in your customs documentation
• If the fabric is cut to length and finished with aglets, it may be classified as a made-up article
