Import Tips
• Confirm not 'poplin/broadcloth' per statistical note (a) via thread count/weave specs to stay in 'other'
• Document yarn numbers and construction to distinguish from printcloth or sheeting misclassifications
• Ensure country-of-origin rules for blends; transshipment risks duty adjustments
