Import Tips

Verify square construction and exact weight (>170 g/m²) with lab tests to confirm sheeting per statistical note (d); misclassification as poplin risks penalties

Provide detailed weave specs, yarn numbers, and print documentation in entry; ensure filament yarn origin certificates for Chapter 54 eligibility

Avoid common pitfalls like declaring as unprinted (5407.91) or non-sheeting; request binding ruling if blending with natural fibers exceeds limits
