Import Tips
• Conduct laboratory testing for exact nm via approved formulas (e.g
• BYT/1000) post-desizing to prevent customs disputes
• Include affidavits from producers certifying not for retail sale and combed fiber origin
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as sewing thread, which requires separate Chapter 52 heading
