Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm <85% artificial staple fibers mixed with man-made filaments, as misclassification to 5515 can occur
• Provide detailed weave analysis and print documentation to Customs for satin/twill confirmation under statistical note (628)
• Label rolls with country of origin and care instructions to avoid delays at entry
