Import Tips
• Verify weight per m² (100-200 g) and yarn number (43-68) via lab testing to confirm classification under 5208.22.60.90
• Provide bleaching certification and fiber content documentation; ensure no optical brighteners if for food use
• Avoid misclassification as lighter cheesecloth under 5208.22.30; check for quantitative restrictions on cotton imports
