Import Tips

• Verify fabric weight exceeds 271 g/m² with lab testing certificates to confirm classification in this heavy subcategory

• Include detailed construction specs (e.g

• terry loop height) in invoices to avoid misclassification as lighter fabrics

• Check for metal thread content, as it remains in Chapter 60 even if used in apparel
