Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab test to confirm <85% cotton mixed with man-made fibers; declare exact percentages on entry docs
• Measure weight post-sizing removal per US note formulas to ensure >200 g/m² classification
• Avoid misdeclaration as pure cotton (5209) by providing weave analysis showing 3- or 4-thread twill
