Import Tips
• Include detailed yarn count and weave specs in entry docs to match 'combed' criteria per Chapter 52 notes
• Ensure NAFTA/USMCA claims if eligible, but test blends rigorously to avoid wool content disputes
• Watch for greige imports misdeclared as dyed—post-dyeing weight must be documented
