Import Tips

Verify exact fiber composition via lab tests to confirm 'mixed mainly with artificial staple fibers' for accurate HTS classification

Provide mill certificates and yarn count specifications in import documentation to avoid misclassification as multiple yarn

Ensure yarn is not packaged for retail sale; bulk spools only to prevent reclassification under Chapter 55 retail provisions
