Import Tips & Compliance

Verify yarn number using HTS formula (actual meters/kg divided by 1,000, multiplied by single yarns) to confirm 43-52 nm range post-sizing removal

Provide lab test reports certifying <85% cotton content and uncombed fiber status to avoid reclassification to pure cotton headings

Ensure no retail packaging; bulk spools only, as retail puts it under heading 5206 with different subheadings
