Import Tips
• Measure fabric weight post-sizing removal as per US note (b) to ensure under 200 g/m²; retain boiling test records
• Declare exact yarn number using total single yarns per cm² formula to fit 43-68 range precisely
• Avoid bulk packaging misclassification; specify retail bolts if applicable to prevent shift to parts headings
