Import Tips
• Obtain lab testing to confirm average yarn number using Chapter 52 formulas (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000) after removing sizing
• Provide certificate of origin to verify compliance with cotton quota restrictions if applicable from source country
• Ensure accurate weight declaration post-scouring; common pitfall is misclassifying due to excessive sizing
