Import Tips
• Use ISO-certified testing for decitex and filament count; CBP often audits these specs, leading to penalties for discrepancies
• Declare as 'single yarn' explicitly; plied yarns shift to twisted multi-strand categories
• For industrial end-use, include buyer letters specifying non-apparel use to preempt misclassification queries
