Import Tips
• Verify fabric weight and yarn composition via lab tests to confirm polyester staple fiber content over 85% for Chapter 55 classification
• Provide mill certificates and weave structure details to customs to distinguish from cotton denim under Chapter 52
• Avoid misdeclaration as apparel fabric; declare as greige or finished yardage to prevent reclassification
