Import Tips
• 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
