Import Tips
• Verify fabric weight exceeds 200 g/m² with lab testing to confirm classification and avoid reclassification to lighter fabrics
• Provide mill test certificates confirming unbleached state and 100% cotton composition for smooth CBP clearance
• Watch for quantitative restrictions on cotton imports; ensure origin complies with US note limitations
