Import Tips
• Submit detailed weave specs and yarn filament count to distinguish chiffon from taffeta or other open weaves
• Document dyeing as a finishing process after weaving to prevent reclassification as yarn-dyed
• Avoid bulk packaging mislabeled as industrial; retail sale requires consumer labeling compliance
