Import Tips
• Use approved nm formulas from US notes (e.g
• BYT/1000) with lab reports to substantiate fineness claims
• Declare as industrial yarn only; retail put-up shifts to different duty-free or lower-rate categories
• Monitor quantitative restrictions on raw cotton inputs that may indirectly affect blended yarn pricing
