Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm <85% cotton and man-made fiber mix; declare exact percentages on entry

• Provide weight certification (g/m²) as >200 g/m² is key; scour sizing if needed for accurate measurement per US notes

• Avoid misclassification as printed (5211.49) by ensuring uniform dyeing, not patterns
