Import Tips
• Verify weave meets poplin definition (plain weave, not square construction) and confirm >=85% polyester via lab test for accurate classification
• Provide mill test certificate and printing process documentation to prove it's printed post-weaving
• Avoid misclassification as unprinted (5407.69.10) by submitting dyed/print samples if audited
