Import Tips

• Provide weave structure diagrams or samples to confirm satin weave, as per U.S. notes on specified weaves

• Label bolts with exact weight per square meter and cotton percentage to prevent undervaluation disputes

• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring as lighter weight fabric, which shifts to lower subheadings
