Import Tips

• Confirm the yarn is not dressed for use as sewing thread and put up on supports of 1,000 g or less, which would classify it under heading 52.04, 54.01 or 55.08

• Provide a sample or technical data sheet to support the paper yarn composition

• Be aware that if the yarn exceeds 10,000 decitex, it may be treated as twine under Section Note 3
