Import Tips

• Measure average yarn number post-sizing removal as per US Note (b); fractions disregarded—ensure documentation matches

• Label weight accurately in g/m² after processing; pitfall is classifying lightweight voiles under lighter subheadings

• Certify plain weave exclusivity (no other weaves per selvage excluded); useful for apparel manufacturers
