Import Tips
• Document weave as 'wholly of plain weave or basketweave' per US note (b) to confirm Oxford classification
• Measure fabric weight post-scouring to ensure ≤200 g/m²; overweight shifts to higher subheadings
• Avoid common pitfall of mislabeling print process—use invoices specifying 'printed' vs 'dyed'
