Import Tips
• Include flame-retardancy test certificates if marketed as such, but note it doesn't change base classification
• Declare exact weight per square meter to differentiate from printcloth or sheeting under statistical notes
• Bundle with commercial invoices specifying 'duck (219)' to prevent reclassification as general 'other' fabric
