Import Tips
• Verify fabric weight exceeds 200 g/m² via lab testing; use US note formulas for yarn number if disputed
• Provide mill test certificate confirming 'duck' weave (plain, heavy cotton) and printing process
• Avoid misclassification as lighter fabrics (under 200 g/m²) which fall into 5212.23; check for quantitative restrictions on cotton
