Import Tips & Compliance

Calculate average yarn number using HTS formulas (e.g

N = BYT/1,000) after removing sizing; fractions disregarded—document for CBP verification

Provide lab tests confirming ≥85% cotton content, weight ≤200 g/m² but >100 g/m², and dyed plain weave; retain weave structure affidavits

Avoid misclassification as unbleached (5208.31) or lighter weights; check quantitative restrictions on raw cotton inputs per U.S
