Import Tips & Compliance

Verify exact cotton content via lab testing as <85% threshold determines chapter 52 classification vs pure cotton headings

Provide mill test certificates documenting yarn number (nm) calculation per US note formulas to avoid CBP reclassification

Monitor quantitative restrictions on uncombed cotton inputs; ensure supplier provides origin certificates for quota compliance
