Import Tips

• Conduct yarn number average per US Note (a) to ensure plain weave classification; retain calculation records

• Avoid common pitfall of incomplete dyeing certification—provide affidavits from dyers for uniform color

• Check for 'certified hand-loomed' status under 5209 notes for potential duty reductions if applicable
