Import Tips

• Conduct yarn number verification per US note formula (e.g

• N = BYT/1,000) post-sizing removal for accurate declaration

• Label cones clearly as 'not for retail sale' with weight >5 kg to prevent CBP reclassification

• Monitor aggregate quotas from US notes on upstream cotton imports, as they impact combed yarn availability
