Import Tips
• Clearly label as 'grey goods' (unbleached) on commercial invoice to prevent mistaken bleached classification
• Conduct yarn count verification using multiple formulas from US note (b) for consistency in customs review
• Beware of end-use declarations; interlining use doesn't change classification but affects drawback claims
