Import Tips

• Conduct desizing boil test per US notes before yarn count calculation to ensure accurate 'number' measurement

• Label rolls with exact g/m² and yarn specs; mismatches lead to audits and potential 5208.19 classification

• For certified hand-loomed versions, obtain government certification to qualify under special provisions if applicable
