Import Tips
• Verify fiber content through lab testing to confirm classification under 'other textile materials' and avoid reclassification to cotton headings
• Provide weave structure documentation showing terry loops to distinguish from flat woven fabrics in Chapter 52
• Ensure width exceeds 30 cm to prevent misclassification as narrow woven fabrics under 5806
