Import Tips

• Ensure customs declaration includes printed weave certification; mislabeling as unprinted can trigger reclassification

• Calculate average yarn number using HTS US note formulas (e.g

• N=BYT/1000) from import-condition fabric

• Avoid bulk packaging issues—retail-ready rolls qualify here, but industrial bolts may need end-use verification
