Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm <85% cotton as blends can vary; declare accurately to avoid reclassification

• Provide weave structure documentation (plain weave) and weight certificates; printcloth (315) requires style verification

• Watch for quota limits on cotton blends; ensure MMF component is documented to qualify under mixed fabric provisions
