Import Tips
• Verify yarn composition via lab tests to confirm artificial filament content over 85% for accurate classification
• Provide dyeing and printing process documentation to distinguish from unprinted fabrics under 5408.32
• Avoid misclassification as apparel fabric by ensuring it's sold by the meter, not as finished garments
