Import Tips & Compliance

Measure fabric breadth and total single yarns per cm² post-boiling to calculate 'number' accurately for 43-68 compliance

Label bolts with exact weight, weave type (plain), and dyeing method to prevent CBP reclassification

Avoid common pitfall of entering as 'shirting' without yarn count proof, risking shift to 5208.32.5020
