Import Tips
• Document the twill weave type (3/4-thread) and napping direction with photos or samples for CBP review
• Ensure no dyeing post-bleaching to maintain bleached status; common pitfall leading to 5209.42 classification
• Obtain cotton origin certificates to navigate quantitative limits in US notes for Chapter 52
