Import Tips
• > Confirm the tow's total linear density exceeds 20,000 decitex and filament linear density is under 67 decitex
• Since PA11 is a polyamide, verify whether it falls under subheading 5501.10 (nylon) or 5501.19 (other); PA11 is typically not nylon, so 5501.19 applies
• Provide technical datasheets to CBSA to confirm the tow's properties
