Import Tips

Specify industrial vs consumer end-use in docs, though classification hinges on fabric specs not application

Use formula N = BYT/1,000 from US note for any yarn count disputes in heavyweight cottons

Ensure no metal/plastic reinforcements that could reclassify as Chapter 59 coated textiles
