Import Tips
• Document linear meters per kg and total single yarns per cm² for precise yarn number verification
• Avoid common pitfall of mislabeling as 'certified hand-loomed' without government certification from origin country
• Include lab tests confirming weight ≤200 g/m² and bleached state to prevent duty upgrades
