Import Tips
• Document exact twist measurement (e.g
• zero twist) via twist tester reports for customs verification
• Label as 'not for retail sale' with bulk cone packaging to stay in industrial yarn headings
• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring denier/decitex, leading to duties under finer yarn subheadings
