Import Tips
• Document cone size (>5kg typical for non-retail) and industrial end-use to support 'not put up for retail sale' status
• Calibrate twist uniformly across shipment; variability can trigger audits shifting to higher-twist categories
• Ensure no sewing thread confusion—specify 'weaving/knitting yarn' and provide end-use affidavits if needed
