Import Tips

• Conduct fiber burn tests for acetate verification; common pitfall is confusing with rayon leading to Chapter 54 errors

• Specify 'poplin' weave in invoices with g/m² under 170 for lightweights, per note exclusions

• For sets with trims, declare as fabric only to prevent 'set' classification under 5516.90
