Import Tips
• Submit bleaching process certification to distinguish from unbleached; bleached still qualifies if specs match sheeting
• Test for square construction (equal warp/fill density) as deviation could reclassify to poplin or other
• Avoid bulk packaging mislabeled as retail sets; individual bolts stay woven fabric vs assembled goods
