Import Tips

Verify exact yarn number using the nm formula (meters/kg ÷ 1000) from US notes to confirm 14-43 nm range and avoid misclassification

Provide lab test reports certifying <85% cotton content and combed fiber processing to support entry documentation

Ensure no retail packaging; bulk spools only, as retail put-up shifts to Chapter 55 or higher headings
