Import Tips
• Document weave as plain (excluding selvage) per US notes, as mixed weaves may disqualify from 5208.52
• Weigh fabric after desizing to accurately confirm 100-200 g/m² range and avoid overweight classification
• Label with country of origin certification if hand-loomed, potentially qualifying for special provisions under 5208
