Import Tips & Compliance

Verify yarn twist does not exceed 472 turns per meter to confirm 'flat fabric' status per statistical note (b)

Provide lab test reports certifying ≥85% polyester non-textured filament content and weight ≤170 g/m² for customs

Avoid misclassification as sheeting by ensuring non-square construction; common pitfall leads to duty reassessment
