Import Tips
• Submit weave analysis confirming poplin structure (excluding selvage) per US note (b) to avoid 5212.19 reclassification
• Record desizing process weights for accurate g/m² calculation after boiling per average yarn number methodology
• Monitor origin quotas indirectly affecting pricing; non-WTO countries face cotton raw material restrictions
