Import Tips
• Document the napping process (e.g
• brushing or sanding) as proof it meets the 'napped' criterion
• Avoid common pitfalls by ensuring no excessive sizing remains, as per US note on yarn number calculation
• Obtain advance rulings from CBP if fabric could be seen as twill weave instead of plain
