Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm <85% cotton mixed with MMF, as exceeding 85% shifts to 5208

• Provide weave analysis and yarn number calculations per US note formulas to avoid misclassification as other plain weaves

• Include documentation proving weight ≤200 g/m² and printed status, common pitfalls include unprinted imports defaulting to unprinted subheadings
