Import Tips

Verify yarn decitex, filament count, and twist per meter via lab testing to confirm classification under 5407.61.91.00

Provide mill test certificates documenting 100% polyester composition and non-textured filaments to avoid reclassification

Watch for blending errors; even minor non-polyester content shifts to broader 5407 categories with different duties
