Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm ≥85% PVA, as discrepancies can lead to reclassification
• Include mill certificates and yarn specifications in documentation to prove single yarn status and non-retail packaging
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as sewing thread, which falls under Chapter 54
