Import Tips
• Document plain weave exclusivity per US note (b); variegated weaves risk shift to other subheadings
• Provide certification if hand-loomed, potentially qualifying for 5208/5209 preferences but verify for mixed fiber
• Avoid bulk packaging misdeclaration; retail-ready rolls need accurate GSM labeling to prevent penalties
