• Verify exact thread count and weight per US note formulas to confirm 313 sheeting classification; provide lab test reports if challenged

• Include dyeing process certification and fiber content labels (must be 100% cotton) to avoid reclassification

• Watch for quota restrictions on cotton fabrics; ensure country of origin complies with US note limitations
