Import Tips

Verify denier, filament count, and POY status via manufacturer specs to confirm classification under 5402.46; fully drawn yarn shifts to other subheadings

Include lab test reports certifying twist ≤50 turns/m and partial orientation; common pitfall is misclassifying as textured yarn

Ensure not 'put up for retail sale'—bulk spools only; provide end-use declaration to avoid reclassification
