Import Tips
• Conduct yarn count testing post-sizing removal via boiling to match US note formulas (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000) for accurate nm declaration
• Include country-of-origin certification; check against cotton import quotas in 5201 notes based on staple length to prevent entry refusal
• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as sewing thread—ensure declaration specifies 'not sewing thread' with no retail put-up
