Import Tips
• Document bleaching process and confirm square construction with thread count records to avoid sheeting exclusions
• Ensure Customs declaration matches lab-tested g/m² weight to prevent reclassification over 170 g/m²
• Label clearly as 'flat fabric' and provide weave analysis to distinguish from excluded types
