Import Tips
• Measure fabric weight post-sizing removal via boiling to confirm ≤200 g/m²; overweight shipments risk moving to heavier subheadings
• Include commercial invoice detailing fiber blend percentages and yarn number calculation method to facilitate CBP review
• Avoid bundling with bleached fabrics in same entry to prevent commingling penalties under unbleached provisions
