Import Tips
• Submit weave diagrams or samples to CBP if challenged on gauze vs. standard open weave classification
• Track weight precisely during import; over 140 g/m² reclassifies to higher-duty woven fabric headings
• Avoid selling as sets with non-textile components, which could invoke GRI 3 rules for composite goods
