Import Tips
• Verify exact yarn composition and weave structure to confirm poplin definition per statistical note (a); obtain mill test certificates for fiber content
• Ensure no multiple or cabled yarns if claiming lighter weights
• Common pitfall: misclassifying as 100% staple under 5515.11 if filament content is under 50%
