Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab test to confirm <85% synthetics; misdeclaration risks reclassification to 5407.61
• Include dye fastness certificates and yarn count details in documentation to match poplin/broadcloth definition
• Avoid common pitfalls like incorrect weave claims—ensure plain weave, not square construction per note (c)
