Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm <85% cotton and man-made fiber mix for accurate classification
• Provide weight documentation (g/m²) and weave structure proof to avoid misclassification as lighter fabrics
• Check for quantitative restrictions on cotton imports and ensure origin certificates for non-WTO countries
