Import Tips

• Verify average yarn number using HTS formulas (e.g

• N = BYT/1,000) after removing sizing; fractions disregarded

• Provide lab test reports confirming ≥85% cotton content and weight ≤100 g/m² to avoid reclassification

• Ensure unbleached status with documentation; bleaching shifts to 5208.21
