Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm <85% polyester and mainly cotton mix for accurate classification
• Provide weave analysis and weight certificates to customs to distinguish from lighter poplins excluded in notes
• Ensure printing is post-weave to avoid reclassification as dyed under 5514.43
