Import Tips

• Verify exact fiber content via lab test to confirm <85% cotton; provide mill test certificate to avoid reclassification

• Include documentation proving plain weave duck construction (219 threads/in²) and printed finish per subheading notes

• Check for quantitative restrictions on cotton blends; common pitfall is incorrect weight declaration leading to audits
