Import Tips
• Provide yarn count and construction proofs to confirm printcloth specs, avoiding exclusion as napped or combed
• Check for man-made fiber visa requirements; non-compliance leads to entry refusal
• Label 'not combed' accurately if applicable, as combed versions may shift classifications
