Import Tips & Compliance
• Include processing records showing garnetting from waste to confirm 'indeterminate color grey yarn' status under note (a)(ii)
• Ensure no fugitive dyes remain post-soap wash test; treated yarn still qualifies if color disappears
• Use commercial invoices specifying count and ply to match statistical suffix .90 for 'other'
