Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm <85% synthetic staple mixed mainly with cotton; discrepancies lead to reclassification
• Provide weave structure certification (satin/twill) and weight documentation (≤170 g/m²) for customs clearance
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as plain weave, which shifts to other subheadings
