Import Tips
• Obtain third-party lab certification for cotton content and weight to support valuation and duty calculations
• Declare exact printing technique (e.g
• reactive printing) as it affects classification within printed subheadings
• Avoid common pitfall of importing with excessive sizing; boil test may be required by CBP for accurate yarn number
