Import Tips
• Verify square construction and yarn count exceed Chapter 55 'sheeting' thresholds via lab testing to avoid reclassification
• Provide width certificates as fabrics over 254 cm (100 inches) require precise measurement documentation
• Label fiber content accurately (85%+ polyester staple) to comply with Textile Fiber Products Identification Act
