Import Tips
• Include commercial invoices specifying weave type (sateen) and weight per m² to support 5210.19.20.20 entry
• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'plain weave' which would shift to different subheading; provide lab certification
• Monitor man-made fiber ratio as shifts over time may require reclassification under synthetic headings
