Import Tips

• Verify fabric weight exceeds 200 g/m² with lab testing and provide bleaching process documentation to confirm classification

• Include thread count certification and average yarn number calculation per US Note (a) to avoid reclassification

• Ensure no denim weave or certified hand-loomed status, as those shift to 5209.42 or 5208/5209 headings
