Import Tips
• Verify yarn metrics using nm formula from US notes (meters/kg divided by 1000, adjusted for singles) to confirm 80-94 range; provide lab test reports
• Include certificate of combed fibers and ring spinning process; watch for quotas on cotton yarns under Chapter 52
• Avoid retail packaging to prevent reclassification; declare exact decitex (106.38-125) on entry docs to dodge common audit pitfalls
