Import Tips
• Document milling process (ball mill vs hammer mill) to confirm group 3 equivalence and avoid underheading disputes
• Pair with downstream buyer contracts proving spinning end-use to support classification stability
• Beware of moisture content specs; excessive humidity can alter fiber integrity and trigger reclassification
