Import Tips
• Provide weave analysis reports to confirm square construction and exclude printcloth criteria like specific yarn numbers 43-68
• Label as unbleached explicitly; any minimal optical brighteners could reclassify to other subheadings
• Ensure staple fiber length certification to differentiate from filament under Chapter 54
