Import Tips
• Document square construction metrics (warp/fill counts) to substantiate sheeting classification per Chapter 53 notes
• Ensure man-made content labeling complies with textile partnership agreements for restraint categories
• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring weight; test for ≤200 g/m² to prevent duty shifts
