Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm <85% cotton and exact man-made fiber mix for subheading compliance
• Provide weave certification (sateen with floats ≥4 yarns) and weight documentation (greige >200 g/m²) to CBP
• Avoid misclassification as bleached by ensuring no optical brighteners or finishing processes were applied
