Import Tips
• Verify denier, filament count, and twist levels in supplier documentation to confirm classification as multiple polyester yarn
• Obtain mill test certificates proving polyester composition (>85% polyester) to avoid misclassification as blends
• Ensure yarn is not packaged for retail (e.g
• no consumer spools) to prevent shifting to Chapter 55 headings
