Import Tips
• Confirm fabric weight and yarn count exclude it from sheeting or printcloth definitions in statistical notes
• Label with exact fiber content and dyeing method; common pitfall is undervaluation due to bulk packaging
• Obtain supplier affidavits for origin to qualify for preferential tariffs if applicable
