Import Tips
• Document weave type explicitly as 'other' (not plain/twill/satin); customs may challenge if resembling 5208.12-5208.18
• Use certified scales for areal weight post-scouring to confirm ≤200 g/m², preventing shift to heavier fabric headings
• Include mill test certificates for yarn number calculation per Chapter 52 US note (a) to support high-number claim
