Import Tips
• Document average yarn number using US note formulas (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000) to prove compliance; test post-sizing removal
• Include government certification if claiming hand-loomed status under 5209 US note for potential duty relief
• Watch for quantitative restrictions on cotton inputs per US notes—origin from non-WTO countries may be restricted
