Import Tips
• Verify twist measurement exceeds 5 turns/meter using certified lab testing to confirm classification
• Provide mill certificates detailing decitex (<67), filament count, and artificial composition (e.g
• viscose)
• Avoid retail packaging; ship in bulk cones to prevent reclassification as put-up yarn
