Import Tips

• Submit filament count and tenacity test reports to confirm multifilament status and high performance specs

• Ensure documentation specifies twist less than 5 tpm and total decitex >920 to prevent reclassification

• Watch for pitfalls in declaring as 'textured' which would move it to 5402.19.10; use precise non-textured labels
