Import Tips
• Provide weave certificates confirming plain weave poplin/broadcloth per statistical note (c), avoiding sheeting misclassification
• Test for cuprammonium rayon via chemical analysis; mislabeling as acetate shifts to 5408.33 subheading
• Declare exact thread counts from warp/filling samples; exceeding 142 warp moves to higher density subheadings
