Import Tips

Verify exact fiber composition via lab testing as blends under 85% cotton must be documented precisely for Chapter 52 classification

Confirm nm calculation using official US note formula (actual meters/kg divided by 1,000, multiplied by single yarns) to ensure exceeding 80 nm

Provide mill certificates proving combed fibers and non-retail packaging to avoid reclassification as retail yarn under 5509
