Import Tips
• Remove excessive sizing before weighing to compute accurate yarn number per US Note formulas
• Provide documentation proving 'yarns of different colors' via dye lot records to justify subheading
• Avoid common pitfall of declaring over 200 g/m², which shifts to higher weight subheadings
