Import Tips

Include origin certificates proving handwoven status to qualify for potential preferences under cotton-specific provisions

Label clearly as 'not made up' with dimensions in linear meters to avoid upcharge as finished goods

Test for colorfastness and ensure no flocking, as misidentification could lead to 5702.51 classification
