Import Tips
• Document average yarn number using Chapter 52 formulas (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000) to prove ≤42 classification
• Include commercial invoice specifying 'sheeting (313)' and bleaching process to prevent customs disputes
• Avoid common pitfall of mislabeling weight; test post-sizing removal as per US notes
