Import Tips
• Verify single yarn decitex ≤500 and confirm folding/cabling structure via lab test to match 5402.31.60.00; misclassification risks higher duties
• Provide mill certificates showing nylon polyamide composition and textured process; ensure not put up for retail sale
• Avoid pitfalls like declaring as single yarn—multiple yarns trigger this subheading; check for tow exclusion per chapter notes
