Import Tips

• Verify exact yarn count, gsm, and singles yarn density per statistical note (e) to confirm printcloth classification; mismeasurement leads to reclassification

• Provide mill test certificates for fiber content (100% artificial filament like viscose) and weave structure to avoid delays at customs

• Ensure no multiple/cabled yarns are present, as this excludes from printcloth definition; common pitfall in mixed lots
