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
