Import Tips
• Verify average yarn number using HTS formulas (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000) after removing sizing to confirm 43-68 range for subheading compliance
• Provide lab test reports for fiber content (>85% cotton) and weight (<100 g/m²) to avoid reclassification during customs exam
• Ensure 'sheeting (313)' statistical suffix matches via thread count documentation; common pitfall is mislabeling yarn numbers
