Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify yarn specs (75-80 dtex, 24 filaments, twist >50 turns/m) with lab testing certificates to match HTS 5402.52.10.00 exactly

• Provide mill test reports and yarn cross-section analysis to customs for classification confirmation

• Avoid misdeclaration as multifilament yarn without 24 filaments; common pitfall leads to reclassification
