Import Tips
• Calculate average yarn number using Chapter 52 formula (e.g
• BT/Z) if fineness questioned by CBP
• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'dyed' instead of 'printed'; printing involves pattern application
• Include commercial invoice specifying g/m² after desizing for accurate weight verification
