Import Tips & Compliance

Verify exact fiber content via lab testing to confirm polyester-dominant mix with viscose rayon, as blends under 85% polyester may shift to other subheadings

Provide weave specifications and weight (gsm) documentation to prove 'duck (219)' status, avoiding misclassification as general 'other' fabrics

Include statistical note compliance evidence, as duck excludes certain low-density or heavy yarn constructions common in pitfalls
