Import Tips
• For medical imports, comply with FDA 21 CFR labeling even on fabric stage; include sterilization certs
• Document that printing is surface-applied, not integral dyeing, to maintain printed classification
• Test for excessive sizing removal via boiling to get true fabric weight per tariff notes
