Import Tips

Verify fiber content via lab test to confirm <85% cotton mixed mainly with MMF; declare exact percentages on entry docs

Provide weight certificate showing ≤200 g/m² and yarn number calculation per US note formulas to avoid reclassification

Ensure dyeing is uniform and documented; watch for quota restrictions on cotton blends from non-WTO countries
