Import Tips
• Verify exact twist measurement (must be ≥5 turns/m) via lab testing to confirm classification under 5402.47.90.40
• Provide detailed denier, filament count, and twist certification in entry documentation to avoid reclassification
• Ensure yarn is not packaged for retail sale; bulk spools only, as retail packaging shifts to Chapter 55
