Import Tips
• Verify exact cotton content <85% via lab test; provide fiber composition certificates to avoid reclassification
• Confirm yarn number ≥69 using US note formulas (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000); retain weave analysis reports
• Ensure weight ≤200 g/m² documented; common pitfall is mislabeling heavier fabrics
