Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm artificial staple fibers exceed 85% for Chapter 55 classification
• Include bleaching process certification in documentation to avoid misclassification as dyed or printed
• Check weight and weave to ensure it doesn't qualify as poplin, broadcloth, or other statistical categories
