Import Tips
• Verify yarn composition via lab testing to confirm ≥85% non-textured polyester filaments; discrepancies lead to reclassification
• Provide detailed weave specs and weight certificates to avoid misclassification as poplin or broadcloth under statistical notes
• Label color variations clearly, as 'yarns of different colors' requires evidence of distinct dyed filaments
