Import Tips
• Submit commercial invoices with precise g/m² and yarn number declarations; CBP often tests for compliance
• Certify non-handloomed status unless qualifying under 5208 certified provisions to avoid quota issues
• Beware of blends creeping over 15% non-cotton, shifting to Chapter 52 blended fabrics
