Import Tips
• Use certified weigh tests post-sizing removal as per US note (b) to confirm ≤200 g/m²; excessive sizing inflates weight
• Document yarn count via formula N = BYT/1,000 from US notes to prove number 42 or lower
• Avoid bulk packaging claims; retail-ready bolts may qualify for different statistical reporting
