Import Tips
• Ensure the yarn is not put up for retail sale; industrial packaging is required for this tariff item
• Declare the exact fibre composition and yarn count (decitex) on customs documents to support classification
• Verify whether the polyester component affects the classification under Section XI Note 2, as the cotton must predominate by weight
