Import Tips
• Submit commercial invoices with exact g/m² weight and yarn color specifications; common pitfall is misstating weight leading to lighter fabric classification
• Obtain government certification if claiming hand-loomed status under US note for potential duty relief
• Ensure no sizing agents inflate weight; desize samples for accurate tariff average yarn number calculation per US note
