Import Tips

• Document weave as plain (excluding selvage) per US Note (b); twill variations may shift classification

• Test weight after desizing/boiling per Chapter 52 formulas to ensure accurate g/m² measurement

• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring as 'certified hand-loomed' without government certification
