Import Tips

• Verify fabric weight and yarn number via lab testing to confirm 100-200 g/m² and numbers 43-68; ensure printing is clearly documented as it affects classification from unprinted subheadings

• Provide mill certificates for cotton content ≥85% to avoid reclassification; watch for quantitative restrictions on certain cotton origins
