Import Tips

• Verify thread count via laboratory testing using HTS Chapter 52 yarn number formulas (e.g

• N = BYT/1,000) to confirm 313 classification and avoid reclassification

• Provide mill certificates for fiber content (100% cotton) and weight per m²; ensure printing is post-weaving to stay in 5212.15

• Watch for quota restrictions on raw cotton inputs; declare as finished fabric, not greige, to prevent duty shifts
