Import Tips
• Document origin of cut pieces from wider bolts to prove narrow fabric status; customs may request weave analysis
• Ensure no impregnation or lamination, as per chapter note excluding such from Chapter 58
• Label fiber content accurately; blends over 50% cotton may shift to multi-fiber subheadings
