Import Tips
• Document average yarn number per US note formulas to confirm classification within Chapter 52 woven fabrics
• Include commercial invoices specifying end-use as drop cloth to prevent misclassification as apparel material
• Ensure no certification as hand-loomed, which applies only to 5208/5209 certified fabrics
