Import Tips

• Verify twist exceeds 5 turns per meter via lab testing; documentation must include twist certification to match statistical suffix (606)

• Provide manufacturer specs confirming high tenacity viscose rayon composition and denier to avoid reclassification as lower tenacity yarn

• Ensure not 'put up for retail sale' – bulk spools only; retail packaged yarn shifts to heading 5403.49
