Import Tips

Verify exact cotton percentage via lab testing as blends under 85% shift from pure cotton headings; retain certificates for CBP review

Confirm yarn number using official nm formula (meters/kg ÷ 1000 × singles) to ensure 52-80 nm classification; miscalculation leads to reclassification

Provide mill test reports documenting combing process and multiple yarn construction to avoid disputes over fiber preparation
