Import Tips & Compliance
• Disclose wax coating percentage—minimal coatings keep it textile, heavy moves to Chapter 34
• Import bulk spools only; consumer-dispensed floss may classify as 3306 oral hygiene complete
• Test for filament count; true monofil (single) vs. multifil changes to 5402 finer category
