Import Tips

Verify yarn number using HTS formula (N = BYT/1,000) after removing sizing to confirm 43-68 range for subheading eligibility

Provide lab test reports certifying ≥85% cotton content and weight ≤200 g/m² to avoid reclassification

Ensure printing is considered 'printed' per Chapter 52 notes; dyed-only fabrics shift to 5208.52
