Import Tips
• Test fabric weight after conditioning; must be >100 g/m² but ≤200 g/m² for this subheading
• Retain mill test certificates showing yarn number calculation via approved formulas in US Note (a)
• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring as apparel fabric—remains Chapter 52 as greige/woven fabric
