Import Tips
• Include commercial invoices specifying exact fiber percentages and weave type; CBP often audits man-made fiber blends
• Measure weight per m² accurately post-desizing to stay under 200 g/m² threshold
• Certify non-power loom if claiming hand-loomed status for potential duty relief under related provisions
