Import Tips
• Measure and document exact gsm and thread density; CBP may test samples for compliance with sheeting specs
• Label rolls with fiber content, country of origin, and care instructions per FTC and customs regs
• Avoid misdeclaration as poplin by confirming not low thread count (<33/cm) or excluded yarn numbers
