Import Tips
• Provide cotton staple length certification (e.g
• Egyptian >34.925 mm) to support combing claim and avoid quota subheading issues
• Label cones clearly as 'not for retail sale' with importer details to prevent CBP reclassification
• Test for excessive sizing pre-entry; Chapter 52 US Note requires desized weight for nm calculation
