Import Tips
• Verify average yarn number using HTS formula (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000) after removing sizing; must be 43-68 for this subheading
• Provide lab test reports confirming ≥85% cotton content and weight ≤100 g/m² to avoid reclassification
• Ensure dyeing is plain (solid color) without prints, as printed fabrics shift to 5208.52
