Import Tips

• Submit dyeing/printing certificates to CBP proving post-weave printing, distinguishing from yarn-dyed fabrics

• Measure grammage accurately post-scouring to confirm under 200 g/m², as sizing affects weight calculations per US notes

• Label rolls with HTS description 'Oxford cloth (227)' to aid statistical reporting and avoid delays
