Import Tips
• Verify fiber composition via lab testing to confirm artificial filament base with synthetic mix exceeding 50% for accurate classification
• Provide mill certificates documenting unbleached status and weave type to avoid misclassification as dyed or printed
• Ensure documentation specifies average yarn number and gsm to meet poplin definitions and prevent reclassification
