Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm <85% cotton; provide invoices detailing composition to avoid reclassification

• Measure average yarn number using HTS formulas (e.g

• N = BYT/1,000) and include test reports in documentation

• Ensure weight ≤200 g/m² post-sizing removal; common pitfall is misdeclared weight leading to audits
