Import Tips
• Provide bleaching process documentation; importers often overlook proof of non-dyed state
• Measure ends/picks per cm² to confirm not exceeding 33 for poplin exclusion; use certified weave analysis
• Label rolls with exact composition and HTS for CBP; bulk packaging risks misdeclaration as 100% cotton
