Import Tips
• Verify yarn fineness using the nm formula (meters per kg / 1000) from US notes to confirm 43-52 nm range and avoid reclassification
• Provide mill test certificates documenting combed fibers and cotton content ≥85% for CBP compliance; retain production records
• Beware of retail packaging pitfalls—ensure yarn is in bulk cones or beams for industrial use to qualify under this non-retail subheading
