Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify yarn number using HTS formulas (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000) after removing sizing to confirm ≥69 for this subheading
• Provide mill test certificates proving ≥85% cotton content and weight ≤200 g/m² to avoid reclassification
• Ensure fabric is truly unbleached (no chemical processing beyond scouring) to prevent shifting to bleached subheadings
