Import Tips
• Include mill test certificates showing weave type (plain duck 219) and grammage to prevent reclassification as satin or twill
• Label clearly as 'mixed mainly with man-made fibers' to distinguish from pure cotton fabrics in Chapter 52
• Check for anti-dumping duties on specific origins; declare accurate construction per U.S. yarn number notes
