Import Tips

• Use lab reports for weave identification (satin vs. twill); customs often challenges ambiguous structures

• Remove excessive sizing before weight measurement as per US note (a) to ensure ≤200 g/m² compliance

• Avoid bulk packaging without retail intent; may reclassify as unfinished if not for direct apparel use
