Import Tips

• Conduct weave analysis to confirm no multiple/cabled yarns, as printcloth excludes them per statistical note (e)

• Ensure declaration matches 'printcloth (626)' statistical suffix; mismatches lead to audits

• For apparel end-use, pair with correct country-of-origin docs to leverage trade agreements
