Import Tips
• Ensure the yarn is genuinely put up for retail sale (e.g
• on cards, reels, or in balls weighing 85 g or less for man-made filament yarn) to qualify for this tariff item
• Verify it is not sewing thread by checking for a final Z twist and dressing for use as sewing thread
• Keep commercial invoices detailing the yarn's decitex and retail packaging to support classification
