Import Tips
• Document yarn structure (multiple/cabled) with manufacturer specs and count total single yarns for nm calculation per U.S. note formulas like N = BYT/1,000
• Ensure no retail packaging; bulk cones or beams only, as 'put up for retail sale' excludes from heading 5205
• Test for excessive sizing and remove per U.S. notes before weight/yarn number determination to prevent misclassification
