Import Tips

Verify twist exceeds 50 turns/m and provide lab test reports to customs for classification confirmation

Ensure yarn is not packaged for retail (e.g

no consumer spools) to avoid reclassification under heading 5402 as put up for sale

Include denier measurement and polyester content certification to prevent disputes over synthetic filament specs
