Import Tips

Verify fabric weight exceeds 200 g/m² with lab testing and ensure cotton content ≥85% via certified analysis to avoid reclassification

Provide mill test certificates confirming plain weave, unbleached status, and 313 sheeting specs; note any quantitative limits on cotton imports

Declare exact thread count and construction to prevent customs disputes; common pitfall is mislabeling bleached vs unbleached
