Import Tips
• Ensure MMF like viscose is declared as 'man-made fibers' and content <85% cotton via test reports
• Measure fabric weight after removing sizing per US note formulas for accurate g/m² declaration
• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'number 43+' which shifts to different subheading rates
