Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm under 85% cotton as per Chapter 52 notes; declare exact percentages on entry
• Provide mill test certificates for weight (over 200 g/m²) and dye process to avoid reclassification to lighter fabrics
• Watch for quantitative restrictions on cotton content if sourced from non-WTO countries
