Import Tips

• Verify exact fiber composition via lab testing to confirm polyester is the main component and artificial fibers like viscose or acetate are secondary

• Provide mill certificates documenting yarn number and single yarn structure to avoid misclassification as plied yarn

• Ensure yarn is not packaged for retail (e.g

• no consumer labels) to prevent reclassification under retail headings
