Import Tips
• Verify fabric weight does not exceed 140 g/m² with lab testing certificates to confirm classification
• Provide detailed weave structure documentation proving gauze construction with doup threads to avoid reclassification
• Label fiber content accurately as wool or fine animal hair; blends over 50% may shift to other headings
