Import Tips
• Document end-use as lining but classify by fiber/weave, not application, to avoid parts/set confusions
• Test for square construction and thread counts; if >33/cm and qualifying, it risks sheeting reclass
• Include commercial invoices specifying staple fiber type to differentiate from filament blends
