Import Tips
• Document spandex as man-made fiber explicitly; elastic content affects duty but stays in 5210 if cotton dominant
• Use certified lab reports for yarn number verification, as fractions are disregarded per U.S. note formulas
• Prevent delays by declaring exact weave (e.g
• poplin) and ensuring no hand-loom certification claims unless verified
