Import Tips
• Certify cotton content via AATCC testing to confirm ≥85% and avoid blending disputes under 5212
• Declare exact g/m² on entry documents; tolerances are strict for the ≤100 g/m² plain weave subheading
• Watch for misdeclaration as 'hand-loomed' without certification, which requires government proof for 5209
