Import Tips
• Include mill test certificates confirming synthetic filament percentage and yarn dyeing process to support 5407.73 classification
• Label clearly as 'yarn-dyed' to prevent confusion with piece-dyed or printed fabrics, which may require different HTS treatment
• Avoid bulk packaging without retail intent; ensure invoices specify end-use to dodge potential parts classification under 5408
