Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm <85% artificial staple fibers mixed mainly with cotton, as misclassification to 5515 can occur

• Provide dyeing process documentation and weight certificates (>170 g/m²) to customs for oxford cloth verification

• Avoid common pitfalls like incorrect weave declaration; oxford requires basketweave proof per statistical notes
