Import Tips
• Verify yarn composition is primarily acrylic or modacrylic staple fibers via lab testing to confirm Chapter 55 classification
• Provide detailed weave specs (e.g
• thread count, weight >170 g/m²) in entry docs to match 'duck (219)' statistical suffix
• Avoid misclassification as lighter fabrics; include GSM certification to prevent audits
