Import Tips

• Verify the yarn's twist direction (Z twist) and confirm it is not classified as sewing thread under Section Note 5

• Keep records of the polyester weight percentage to support the 85% or more claim

• Ensure the yarn is supplied in bulk, not in retail packaging, to avoid reclassification
