Import Tips

Include staple length documentation (e.g

Egyptian Giza cotton >34.925mm) to support quota eligibility under US notes for longer cottons

Label cones clearly with yarn number, ply, and spinning method to facilitate CBP verification against HTS metric specifications

Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring as single yarn; specify 'multiple (folded)' in entry docs for accurate 5205.48 classification
