Import Tips
• Verify nm calculation per US Note using actual meters/kg divided by 1,000 and multiplied by single yarns to confirm 94-120 Nm range
• Provide mill test certificates confirming >85% cotton content and combed processing to avoid reclassification
• Be aware of country-specific quantitative limits on raw cotton inputs; ensure supplier documentation traces staple length compliance
