Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm <85% artificial staple fibers mixed mainly with cotton, as misclassification to 5209 can occur
• Provide mill certificates and yarn color documentation to prove 'different colors' and blue denim specs for statistical suffix 225
• Avoid common pitfalls like incorrect weave identification; ensure twill construction matches denim definition
