Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm <85% cotton and man-made mix for accurate classification
• Provide weave analysis and yarn count documentation (average #42 or lower) to CBP to avoid reclassification
• Ensure printed patterns meet 'printed' subheading criteria; avoid common pitfalls like misdeclared weight
