Import Tips
• Provide yarn count certification using formulas N=BYT/1,000 from US Notes to prove >200nm for duty accuracy
• Ensure commercial invoices specify 'retail packaged' with UPC codes; common pitfall is bulk misdeclaration
• Comply with cotton fiber origin declarations amid quantitative restrictions; test for blends exceeding 85% cotton threshold
