Import Tips
• 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
