Import Tips
• Label fiber content precisely on invoices; wool ≥36% is critical to avoid fallback to pure artificial filament codes
• Include bleaching process certification to distinguish from unbleached or dyed variants during entry
• Watch for common pitfalls like incomplete weave specs leading to misclassification as poplin or broadcloth
