Import Tips

• Label fiber content accurately as 100% cotton; discrepancies lead to penalties under textile import rules

• Use the specified formulas (e.g

• N = BYT/1,000) in US notes to document average yarn number for customs

• Avoid bulk packaging mimicking industrial rolls to prevent misclassification as unfinished goods
