Import Tips

• Verify fiber composition via lab tests to confirm polyester is predominant with viscose rayon, as required for 5515.11.00; misdeclaration risks reclassification

• Provide weave structure details (e.g

• poplin specs per Chapter 55 notes) in documentation to avoid disputes on construction

• Ensure invoice specifies average yarn number and weight to match poplin definition, preventing shifts to broader categories
