Import Tips
• Verify the fabric is not knitted or crocheted; provide weave analysis or lab tests to confirm classification under 5804
• Include detailed invoices specifying width, yarn type, and end use to prevent reclassification as lace or narrow fabrics
• Ensure no impregnation or coating, as those shift to Chapter 59; common pitfall is bulk packaging mistaken for retail
