Import Tips
• Include processing logs showing neps formation from milling to distinguish from raw nylon fibers
• Ensure no visible plastic impregnation, as per Chapter 56 notes, to prevent reclassification to Chapter 39
• Label packages clearly as 'mill neps' to avoid confusion with flock or dust during customs inspection
