Import Tips

Include commercial invoices specifying exact yarn construction (cabled/folded) and single yarn nm to match subheading precisely

Avoid retail packaging (consumer spools <1kg) which would reclassify to heading 5206 put-up provisions

Document end-use as industrial textile manufacturing to prevent misclassification as sewing thread
