Import Tips

• Declare fabric width and weight accurately; use formulas from U.S. notes to compute average yarn number if audited

• Include dyeing certificates showing unbleached status to prevent classification as bleached (5212.22)

• Watch for set sales with linings; individual fabrics classify here, but sets may require GRI 3 analysis
