Import Tips
• Ensure the tow is not yet processed into filter media, as that would reclassify it under Chapter 59
• Document the tow's specifications, including filament decitex and total tow measurement, to meet chapter note 1
• Verify the tow is drawn and not stretchable beyond 100% to confirm classification
