Import Tips

Verify fiber content via lab test to confirm <85% cotton and exact man-made blend; declare accurately to avoid reclassification

Provide weave analysis and yarn number calculation per US Note formulas (e.g

N = BYT/1,000) in entry documentation

Ensure dyeing is plain (not printed) and weight post-sizing removal is ≤200 g/m² to prevent misfiling under higher weight subheadings
