Import Tips

• Verify yarn number using official nm formula (meters/kg / 1000) to confirm 52-80 nm range; fractions disregarded per US notes

• Provide lab certification for >=85% cotton content and uncombed fiber status to avoid reclassification to combed yarns

• Ensure not put up for retail sale (e.g

• no consumer packaging) to prevent shift to Chapter 52 retail provisions
