Germany's presence reflects its role as a converter and re-exporter: German textile mills may weave or finish fabric using imported cotton fiber or yarn, then export the finished greige fabric. The country of origin for customs purposes is where the fabric was woven, not where the raw cotton originated, so German-origin fabric is classified based on the weaving location.
Fabric weight is typically measured per ASTM or ISO standard methods, and small variations in moisture content or testing methodology can shift a result across the 100 g/m² threshold. Importers should obtain certified weight test reports from the manufacturer and consider having an independent laboratory verify weight before shipment to avoid reclassification at the port of entry.
