Import Tips

• Include detailed weave specs and yarn count calculations per US Note (b) to substantiate 313 sheeting classification

• Declare exact average yarn number using HTS formulas (e.g

• N = BYT/1,000) to prevent undervaluation disputes

• Ensure no pre-shrinking or finishing; importers often overlook that mercerized fabrics shift to other subheadings
