Import Tips

• Confirm the twine is made from strips of heading 54.05 and not from monofilament, which would be classified in Chapter 54

• Provide the braiding pattern and breaking strength on the invoice

• Check if the twine is considered 'made up' under Section XI Note 7, which may affect classification
