Import Tips
• Use independent lab for fiber content analysis; discrepancies lead to penalties under cotton quota rules
• Declare exact weave (twill/satin only); misdeclaration to plain weave triggers audits
• For bulk shipments, segregate by color yarn type to match 'different colors' criterion precisely
