Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm <85% artificial staple fibers mixed mainly with cotton for accurate classification
• Provide weave specs (square construction, >33 ends/picks per cm²) and weight documentation to customs to avoid reclassification
• Ensure printing is post-weave and not considered a separate process that might shift to dyed categories
