Import Tips
• Use certified test reports for yarn number calculation per US note (e.g
• BT/Z formula) to validate 43-68 range
• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring as 100% cotton; MMF mixing requires Chapter 52 subheadings
• Include country-of-origin certificates, noting potential raw cotton quota impacts indirectly
