Import Tips
• Verify exact fiber content via lab test; must be <85% cotton with MMF predominant to qualify
• Provide weave analysis and yarn number calculation per US Note formulas to confirm 'number 69 or higher'
• Avoid bleaching pre-import; unbleached status required—common pitfall leads to reclassification
