Import Tips
• Submit unbleached certification and yarn count details to match Chapter 55 statistical notes for twill
• Label rolls with exact composition and weight; common pitfall is vague 'poly-cotton' without percentages
• Prepare for fiber content disputes—retain supplier affidavits confirming staple fiber type
