Import Tips

• Include GSM (grams per square meter) test reports; exceeding 170 g/m² keeps it out of lighter fabric subheadings

• Avoid bulk packaging without invoices specifying 'woven fabric rolls' to prevent set classification

• Check for prohibited azo dyes in coloring to comply with REACH and US import standards
