Import Tips
• Include commercial invoices specifying exact cotton percentage and dyeing process to prevent reclassification
• Use accepted yarn number formulas from US notes for any disputes on fabric density
• Check for quantitative restrictions if raw cotton content originates from quota-limited countries
