Import Tips
• Verify fabric weight exceeds 200 g/m² via lab testing to confirm classification; provide mill test certificates
• Declare exact yarn color composition and average yarn number per US Note (a) to avoid reclassification
• Ensure no denim weave (per subheading note) to prevent shift to 5209.42; common pitfall is misstating weight
