Import Tips
• Verify yarn construction meets 'multiple (folded) or cabled' definition via lab testing to avoid reclassification to single yarn HTS 5306
• Provide origin certificates confirming jute from heading 5303 bast fibers; common pitfall is mislabeling as sisal
• Ensure commercial invoices specify ply count and folding method for smooth customs clearance
