Import Tips

• Document dyeing process before printing; piece-dyed qualifies here, but yarn-dyed may shift classification

• Test for g/m² precisely after desizing per US note (a); excess weight reclassifies to heavier headings

• Include commercial invoice specifying 'twill weave' to prevent default to other weave subheadings
