Import Tips
• Modal blends require detailed invoices specifying exact percentages; customs often tests cellulose fiber ratios
• Confirm combed fiber origin documentation; uncombed equivalents classify differently under 5207
• Calculate and declare nm per US note formula precisely to avoid fining penalties on coarse yarns
