Import Tips

Verify yarn count, twist direction, and decitex via lab testing to confirm classification under 5403 as artificial multiple yarn

Provide mill test certificates documenting filament composition (e.g

viscose rayon) to avoid reclassification to natural fibers

Ensure no retail packaging; bulk spools only, as retail puts up shifts to Chapter 55
