Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab test to confirm <85% cotton mixed with man-made fibers; declare accurately to avoid reclassification

• Provide weave analysis and yarn number documentation (≤42) as cheesecloth must meet low-density specs per Chapter 52 notes

• Watch for quantitative restrictions on cotton imports; ensure printed finish is noted and not confused with dyed fabrics
