Import Tips
• Document bleaching process with lab reports to distinguish from dyed fabrics; customs often scrutinizes for 5408.32 misclassification
• Measure width precisely (<168 cm for note (e)(ii)); wider rolls may require different statistical suffix
• Label rolls clearly with gsm, yarn number, and construction to speed verification against printcloth criteria
