Import Tips
• Verify denier and fold count via lab testing to confirm classification as multiple (folded) yarn under 5402.39.61
• Include mill test certificates documenting yarn construction to avoid misclassification as single yarn
• Ensure declaration excludes retail packaging to prevent shifting to higher-duty retail codes
