Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify fabric weight exceeds 200 g/m² and confirm plain weave duck structure matching '219' specs via lab testing to avoid reclassification

• Provide mill test certificates for bleaching process and yarn count to ensure compliance with Chapter 52 notes on average yarn number

• Check for quantitative restrictions on cotton imports; ensure origin documentation excludes non-WTO countries if applicable
