Import Tips

• Include commercial invoice specifying exact thread count and 'cheesecloth' use to match statistical suffix (226)

• Ensure no power-loom certification needed; this is not hand-loomed under 5208/5209 notes

• Watch for over-declaration of cotton content—must be <85% to avoid Chapter 52 pure cotton headings
