Import Tips
• Verify average yarn number using HTS formula (N = BYT/1,000) after removing sizing to confirm 314 classification
• Provide mill test certificate for weight (<200 g/m²) and print process to avoid reclassification as unprinted
• Ensure country of origin documentation complies with cotton import quotas if applicable
