Import Tips
• Verify nm count using US note formula (actual meters/kg divided by 1000, multiplied by single yarns) to confirm 80-94 nm range per single yarn
• Provide lab test reports certifying >85% cotton content and combed fibers; watch for quotas on certain country origins under Chapter 52 notes
• Ensure not 'put up for retail sale' (e.g
• no consumer packaging) to avoid reclassification; common pitfall is improper density measurement post-sizing
