Import Tips
• Provide dyeing/printing certificates; ensure no excessive sizing affects weight measurement during customs exam
• Document end-use as greige fabric for cutting/sewing to prevent classification as finished Chapter 63 goods
• Check partner country quotas on raw cotton; include mill certifications for hand-loomed if applicable under 5208/5209 notes
