Import Tips
• Document cabled structure and single yarn nm via lab tests per US note formulas (e.g
• BYT/1000) to avoid disputes
• Check origin quotas for raw cotton derivatives; ensure no Mexican origin for quota-limited entries
• Label cones clearly as industrial use to prevent misclassification as retail under 5207
