Import Tips

• Confirm the tow's filament decitex is below 67 and twist is less than 5 turns per metre to satisfy Chapter 55 Note 1

• Provide documentation showing the beechwood pulp source and high wet modulus properties for verification

• Check if the tow is put up for retail sale, which may affect classification under Section XI notes
