Import Tips
• Label as 'bleached' accurately and provide bleaching process certificates to match unbleached/bleached category
• Conduct weave analysis to prove not square construction (e.g
• unequal warp/fill counts) per poplin definition
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring weight; use certified scales for g/m² verification during customs
