Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as 'unbleached sheeting (627)' and include weave analysis to confirm square construction
• Avoid common pitfall of bleaching post-import without re-declaring, as it remains classified as unbleached if shipped that way
• Check for multiple/cabled yarns, which disqualify from sheeting per note (d)(ii)(A)
