Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm <85% cotton mixed with man-made fibers; discrepancies can lead to reclassification
• Provide weave analysis and yarn number calculations per US note formulas to prove 'number 69 or higher' status
• Include commercial invoice detailing weight per m² and print process to avoid delays in CBP examination
