Import Tips
• Verify fabric weight exceeds 200 g/m² with lab testing to confirm classification; provide grammage certificates
• Include detailed printing process documentation to distinguish from unprinted fabrics under 5212.25.10
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as apparel fabric, which shifts to Chapter 62 and higher duties
