Import Tips
• Verify fabric weight exceeds 200 g/m² via lab testing and provide mill test certificates to confirm cotton content over 85%
• Ensure accurate measurement of width over 127 cm on entry documents; discrepancies can lead to reclassification
• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as lighter weight fabric, which shifts to lower subheadings
