Import Tips
• Verify filament composition via lab testing to confirm artificial (e.g
• viscose, acetate) vs. synthetic for correct chapter 54 classification
• Provide mill certificates documenting yarn count and twist to avoid misclassification as textile yarn under heading 5403
• Ensure commercial invoicing specifies 'sewing thread, not retail packed' to prevent duty shifts
