Import Tips
• Use the Chapter 52 yarn number formulas to document average yarn count if challenged on fabric metrics
• Ensure no power-loom certification confusion; this is machine-woven, not 'certified hand-loomed' under 5209 notes
• Label rolls clearly with weight, composition, and weave type to facilitate CBP examination
