In a recent meeting, the Bangladesh Textile Mills Association (BTMA) proposed furnishing customs houses with yarn scanning machines, shouldering the cost to ensure accurate measurements. 

BTMA Director Khorshed Alam highlighted concerns about misdeclaration at new land ports like Bhomra and Sonamasjid. He emphasized BTMA's readiness to contribute equipment to address the issue. 

While RMG industry leaders opposed halting yarn imports through land customs stations, the customs department expressed support for a stricter import process. 

Unregulated yarn and fabric imports, fueled by misdeclaration, pose a threat to the domestic textile industry's export potential. 

Despite differing opinions, the National Board of Revenue clarified that yarn isn't currently imported through the new land customs stations.
