Import Tips
• Verify yarn tenacity exceeds standard nylon thresholds and document twist measurement (5+ turns/meter) for customs classification
• Provide mill test certificates confirming decitex (>920), filament count, and polyamide composition to avoid reclassification
• Ensure not packaged for retail; bulk spools only, as retail put-up shifts to Chapter 55
