Import Tips

• Verify yarn number using official nm calculation (meters/kg ÷ 1000) and provide lab test reports confirming ≥85% cotton content and uncombed fibers

• Include commercial invoice detailing exact nm count, fiber staple length, and end-use to avoid misclassification as finer yarns or sewing thread

• Be aware of U.S. cotton import quotas on raw fibers; ensure supplier documentation proves compliance for uncombed processing
