Import Tips
• Document printing as a post-weaving process with samples to differentiate from dyed fabrics in adjacent subheadings
• Ensure fiber content labeling complies with U.S
• Customs; test for ≥85% cotton to prevent shift to Chapter 52 blends
• Avoid common pitfalls like misstated yarn number by using official HTS calculation methods on desized fabric
