Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify fabric weight via lab testing (e.g
• ASTM D3776) to confirm >200 g/m² and provide documentation to CBP
• Include mill test certificates showing ≥85% cotton content and dyeing process to avoid reclassification as unbleached
• Label rolls with HTS code, weight, and composition; watch for quotas on raw cotton inputs affecting supply chains
