Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm acrylic is predominant and wool mix qualifies under 'mainly or solely' per HTS notes
• Provide weave structure documentation matching poplin definition to avoid reclassification as sheeting
• Include mill certificates for yarn number and weight to prevent customs disputes on statistical note compliance
