Import Tips & Compliance

• Provide weave diagrams confirming not 'flat fabric' or printcloth per statistical note (b) and (e)

• Label as 'cuprammonium rayon' explicitly; mislabeling as generic viscose risks reclassification

• Watch for dyeing variations—ensure color differences are in warp/fill yarns, not post-weave prints
