Import Tips

• Verify nm number using official formula (actual meters/kg divided by 1,000, multiplied by single yarns) from US notes to confirm 14-43 nm range and avoid misclassification

• Provide lab test reports certifying >85% cotton content and uncombed fibers; subject to quantitative limits if staple length qualifies under 5201 notes

• Ensure not 'put up for retail sale' (e.g

• no consumer packaging) to stay in heading 5205; declare as industrial yarn with end-use documentation
