Import Tips
• Label fiber percentages precisely; U.S
• Customs requires breakdowns for blends to prevent misdeclaration penalties
• Include commercial invoices specifying 'printcloth (315)' and yarn number calculations per US note formulas
• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as apparel if imported in bolts; remains fabric unless cut and sewn
