Import Tips

Label shipments clearly as 'industrial yarn, not for retail' with cone/hank weights to prevent reclassification

Be aware of staple length quotas in U.S. notes for Pima-type cottons over 1-3/8 inches under 5201 imports

Test for sizing removal before weight/yarn number calculations as per U.S. note formulas
