Import Tips
• Verify fabric weight exceeds 271 g/m² and meets velour stitch density (12+ stitches/cm vertically) with lab tests for statistical reporting
• Provide mill test certificates confirming man-made fiber content >70% to avoid reclassification to cotton-blend headings
• Label rolls clearly with HTS code, weight, and fiber composition to prevent customs delays
