Import Tips
• Document fiber composition via certified assays; viscose blends often scrutinized for cotton percentage
• Calculate nm precisely post-sizing removal as per US note formulas to meet 'not exceeding 14 nm' criterion
• Avoid common pitfall of multiple plies, which reclassifies to 5206.42.00
