Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify fabric weight exceeds 170 g/m² and confirm non-square construction to meet poplin/broadcloth definition per statistical note (c)
• Provide lab test reports on yarn number and filament composition to avoid misclassification as sheeting or printcloth
• Ensure documentation specifies 'yarns of different colors' to distinguish from single-color variants under 5408.33.90.00
