Import Tips
• Document average yarn number (68 or lower) and thread count to avoid misclassification as printcloth or broadcloth
• Ensure no napping if declared as standard sheeting; napped versions may alter weave interpretation
• For apparel end-use, prepare for multi-fiber arrangement quotas beyond just cotton restraints
