Import Tips
• Document average yarn number using US note formulas (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000) to support classification claims
• Avoid bulk packaging mimicking sets; declare as individual fabric rolls to prevent Chapter 63 misclassification
• Test for excessive sizing and report desized weight; customs may require boiling test verification
