Import Tips

Provide commercial invoices specifying fiber content percentages and g/m² weight; discrepancies lead to delays

Use approved yarn number formulas from US notes, measuring after desizing for accurate 43-68 classification

Ensure 'yarns of different colors' declaration matches visual inspection to prevent shifts to plain color subheadings
