Import Tips

Verify twist measurement (5+ turns/m) via lab testing as per ASTM standards to confirm classification under 5402.45.90.40 and avoid reclassification to lower twist subheadings

Provide detailed yarn specifications including denier, filament count, and polymer type (e.g

nylon 6.6) on commercial invoice to prevent customs holds

Ensure yarn is not packaged for retail sale; bulk spools only, as retail packaging shifts to Chapter 55 headings
