Import Tips & Compliance

Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm <85% synthetic staple fibers mixed mainly with cotton; discrepancies lead to reclassification

Provide weave construction details (e.g

not square, >170g/m² exclusion) in entry docs to avoid misclassification as poplin under statistical notes

Declare weight precisely per m² and include yarn color variation evidence to match 'yarns of different colors' criterion
