Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 85% artificial staple fibers via lab testing to confirm classification
• Provide dyeing and printing process documentation, specifying discharge method, to avoid misclassification as standard printed
• Ensure weave is certified as satin; common pitfall is confusing with plain weave under 5515
