Import Tips
• Ensure the nylon content does not cause the yarn to be classified as twine or cordage under Section XI Note 3, which would shift it to Chapter 56
• Verify the yarn count in decitex, as 6 nm is well within the 714.29 decitex threshold
• Keep records of the fibre composition and yarn count for CBSA verification
