Import Tips
• Verify exact cotton content via lab testing to confirm <85% and qualify under 5211; misclassification risks penalties
• Provide bleaching certification and weight documentation (g/m²) as proof for >200 g/m² requirement
• Check for denim definition compliance per subheading note if marketing as denim to avoid reclassification
