Import Tips
• Verify yarn number using HTS formulas (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000) after removing sizing to confirm ≤42 constant
• Provide lab test reports certifying ≥85% cotton content and exact weight per m² to avoid reclassification
• Include printing method documentation proving discharge technique, as reactive prints fall under different subheadings
