Import Tips
• Obtain government certification if claiming hand-loomed status to potentially access lower duties under US notes
• Avoid common pitfall of mismeasuring yarn number by including all single yarns in folded/cabled counts
• Prepare invoices specifying exact weave (plain only, no combinations) excluding selvage per US note
