Import Tips
• Test and document basis weight and fiber content; high cotton may require cellulose wadding verification
• Label as 'handmade' only if no machinery used in sheet formation to prevent disputes
• For surface-colored variants, ensure color is not the primary feature to stay out of Chapter 49
