Import Tips
• Measure fabric weight after removing sizing per US note (b) to ensure accurate g/m² declaration
• Include commercial invoices specifying dye type (vat/reactive) and blend ratio to comply with textile regulations
• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring as 100% cotton, triggering higher duties or penalties
