Import Tips
• Measure yarn number per US note formula on actual imported width; retain mill test certificates for customs
• Declare exact g/m² weight post-scouring; bleached voile often scrutinized for sheerness affecting end-use
• Provide affidavits confirming not hand-loomed to avoid 5208.11 duty differences
