Import Tips

• Verify weave density and yarn count via lab tests to confirm sheeting classification per statistical note (b); mismeasurement leads to reclassification

• Include detailed fiber content breakdown (e.g

• 60% viscose staple, 40% poly filament) on invoices for CBP scrutiny

• Avoid napping that exceeds note limits to prevent shifting to broadcloth or other categories
