Import Tips
• Conduct yarn number testing post-scouring to remove sizing, using CBP-approved formulas for accurate nm declaration
• Label shipments clearly as 'industrial yarn, not retail' with fiber content >85% cotton to avoid Chapter 61 misclassification
• Monitor U.S. cotton import quotas; provide documentation proving staple length compliance for upland varieties
