Import Tips
• Verify exact cotton content via lab testing to confirm <85% classification; provide mill test certificates
• Ensure accurate yarn number calculation per US Note formulas (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000) for 43-68 range compliance
• Avoid misdeclaration as 100% cotton (5208/5209); common pitfall leads to duty reassessment
