Import Tips
• Document linear meters per kg (Y) accurately for yarn number via US note (b) formulas during customs exam
• Ensure no selvage exaggeration; tariff classification excludes selvage in weave determination
• Pair with origin certs for quota checks, though processed fabrics like this often evade raw cotton limits
