Import Tips
• Document staple fiber length and crimp to distinguish from filament yarns, avoiding shift to Chapter 54
• For workwear end-use, provide invoices showing fabric-only import; finished garments risk Chapter 62 reclass
• Test for shrinkage and colorfastness; US customs may require proof against poplin/broadcloth misclassification
