Import Tips

• Verify fabric weight exceeds 200 g/m² and confirm plain weave duck structure via lab testing to match HTS 5211.11.00.90

• Provide mill test certificate showing <85% cotton content and unbleached status; check for any Chapter 52 quantitative limits

• Avoid misclassification as lighter fabrics; common pitfall is incorrect weave identification—use photos and thread count
