Import Tips
• Verify yarn fineness using the nm formula from US notes (meters/kg divided by 1000, adjusted for singles) to confirm 80-94 metric number
• Provide lab test certificates proving ≥85% cotton content and combed fibers to avoid misclassification
• Be aware of country-specific quotas on raw cotton inputs; ensure supplier documentation for origin
