Import Tips
• Verify average yarn number using official formulas (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000) after removing sizing to confirm 43-68 range
• Provide mill test certificates for fiber content (≥85% cotton) and weight (≤100 g/m²) to avoid reclassification
• Ensure documentation specifies 'sheeting (313)' to match statistical suffix; common pitfall is mislabeling as broadcloth
