Import Tips
• Conduct yarn twist tests (<472 turns/m for flat fabric) to affirm classification; high-twist risks exclusion
• Include mill certificates proving filament yarn (not staple of Chapter 55) and printing post-weaving
• Avoid retail packaging; ship in rolls to maintain 'fabric' status over finished goods
