Import Tips
• Retain mill test reports for fiber blend and weight; US Customs may require scouring to remove sizing for verification
• Label as 'piece dyed' to avoid confusion with yarn-dyed (5212); check selvage exclusion per US notes
• Ensure no hand-loom certification, as that redirects to 5209 for pure cotton equivalents
