Import Tips
• Calculate average yarn number precisely per Chapter 52 US note (b) using fabric width, meters/kg, and total single yarns
• Ensure no bleaching or dyeing has occurred; provide mill certificates to confirm unbleached status
• Declare exact construction (e.g
• twill or satin) as 'other' excludes plain weave; misdeclaration leads to audits
