Import Tips
• Verify yarn number (43-68) and weight (<100 g/m²) via lab testing to confirm cheesecloth classification
• Provide mill test certificate confirming 85%+ cotton content and dyeing process for CBP review
• Avoid misclassification as uncolored cheesecloth (5208.21.60.90); ensure dyeing documentation
