Import Tips
• Verify fabric weight does not exceed 200 g/m² via lab testing to confirm classification; provide mill test certificates
• Ensure dyeing process documentation to distinguish from bleached or yarn-dyed fabrics in other subheadings
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as denim, which requires specific 3/4-thread twill per chapter notes
