Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab test to confirm <85% cotton mixed with man-made fibers; discrepancies lead to reclassification
• Provide weave analysis and yarn number calculation per US Note formulas to prove 'number 42 or lower'
• Ensure bleaching process documentation to avoid confusion with unbleached subheadings
