Import Tips

Verify square construction and exact weight (>170g/m²) with lab tests to confirm sheeting classification under statistical note (d)

Provide detailed yarn specs (filament count, denier, color variation) in entry docs to avoid misclassification as poplin or broadcloth

Ensure Certificate of Origin for artificial filaments to claim preferential tariffs; watch for anti-dumping on polyester from Asia
