Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm cotton >50% and wool mix, as required for Chapter 52 classification
• Include bleaching certification and weight documentation (gsm >200) to avoid reclassification to lighter fabrics
• Watch for quota restrictions on cotton blends; ensure origin certificates for non-WTO countries
