Import Tips

Verify average yarn number using HTS formulas (e.g

N = BYT/1,000) post-sizing removal to confirm 69+ classification

Provide lab test reports for cotton content (>85%) and weight (<200 g/m²) to avoid reclassification to heavier fabrics

Ensure printing is considered a 'printed' finish per Chapter 52 notes, not dyed, to prevent shifts to 5208.52
