Import Tips
• Verify the fabric meets the Oxford cloth statistical note (227) by confirming basketweave construction and weight specifications to avoid reclassification
• Provide lab test reports certifying artificial staple fiber content (e.g
• polyester) and dyeing process for CBP compliance
• Label rolls with fiber composition, weight per square meter, and country of origin to prevent delays at customs
