Import Tips & Compliance

Document yarn as 'not put up for retail sale' with bulk packaging evidence to stay in 5205 rather than retail headings

Comply with US cotton quota notes by specifying country of origin and staple length under relevant limitations

Test for mercerization (no caustic soda treatment) to prevent misclassification into mercerized subheadings
