Import Tips

• Document weave as plain (not twill/denim per subheading notes) with photos and technical specs

• Remove excessive sizing before weight testing per US note formulas to ensure accurate g/m² compliance

• Label as 'other' fabrics; avoid generic descriptions that could trigger audits for heading 5208/5209
