Import Tips
• Submit commercial invoice specifying single yarn count and nm via official test report to avoid multiple yarn headings
• Monitor for denim-specific blends; if 3/4 twill structure intended, note potential fabric reclassification later
• Ensure no power-loom certification confusion with hand-loomed fabrics under 5208/5209 notes
