Import Tips
• Document weave type (e.g
• twill) excluding denim specs per subheading note to avoid reclassification
• Use average yarn number calculation from US notes if queried, ensuring compliance for mixed yarns
• Declare exact weight in g/m²; pitfall is under-declaring leading to lighter fabric subheadings
