Import Tips
• Verify exact fiber content via lab tests to confirm <85% synthetics; misdeclaration can lead to reclassification
• Provide weave structure certificates proving satin weave, as statistical note (a) requires wholly specified weaves
• Declare yarn colors accurately to avoid shifts to non-multi-color subheadings
