Import Tips

• Verify weave type via lab testing to confirm twill construction, as misclassification to plain weave (5515.99.90.00) is common

• Include detailed yarn composition and gsm documentation to avoid reclassification under Chapter 54 for filament yarns

• Label country of origin clearly, as synthetic fabrics often face additional scrutiny under trade agreements like USMCA
