Import Tips

Verify yarn count, weave type, and weight via lab testing to confirm printcloth classification under statistical note (e); misclassification risks penalties

Provide mill certificates documenting artificial filament composition (e.g

viscose rayon) and printing process for customs clearance

Avoid common pitfalls like declaring as 'sheeting' if not square construction; ensure no multiple or cabled yarns present
