Import Tips
• Provide origin certificates for Egyptian cotton to check against U.S. cotton import quotas in related notes
• Conduct yarn number testing post-sizing removal as per U.S. note formulas to confirm 43-52 nm range
• Label cones clearly as industrial use only; mislabeling as retail can trigger higher duties under 5207
