Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm <85% synthetic staple fibers mixed with cotton, as misdeclaration can lead to reclassification
• Provide weave structure documentation proving jacquard weave and weight <170 g/m² to avoid disputes with customs
• Label yarn color variations clearly; ensure no napping that might shift to other subheadings
