Import Tips & Compliance

• Submit weave analysis confirming plain weave (no combinations beyond plain per U.S. note b)

• Track quota implications if source country listed in cotton notes, though applies more to raw cotton

• Pair with correct country of origin docs, as non-WTO may face restrictions per U.S. notes
