Import Tips & Compliance

Document absence of mercerization via lab tests showing no alkali shrinkage resistance typical of treated yarns

Declare exact nm via weighted average formula (BYT/1000) using post-boiling weight for accurate classification

Monitor Chapter 52 cotton quotas if applicable; ensure origin docs for non-WTO countries
