Import Tips
• Verify average yarn number using Chapter 52 formula (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000) after removing sizing for accurate classification
• Provide lab test reports confirming weight >200 g/m² and print application to avoid misclassification as unprinted (5212.25.10)
• Ensure commercial invoice details weave as poplin/broadcloth to prevent shifts to 5212.29 other fabrics
