Import Tips
• Use total single yarns per cm² (T) in yarn number formula for multi-fold yarns to avoid undercounting
• Declare exact bleaching method (e.g
• peroxide) to differentiate from unbleached or yarn-dyed goods
• Watch for contamination; even trace synthetics drop it below 85% cotton into 5211 headings
