Import Tips
• Include commercial invoice detailing yarn number calculation per US note formulas (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000) for CBP verification
• Ensure no selvage affects weave classification; must be wholly plain weave excluding selvage
• Watch for quantitative restrictions on cotton content if sourced from quota-limited countries
