Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm ≥85% textured polyester filaments for proper classification
• Provide mill test certificates and dye lot details to avoid disputes over 'dyed' status
• Ensure weight documentation (≤170 g/m²) matches invoice to prevent reclassification to heavier subheadings
