Import Tips

• Verify yarn specs (≤0.806mm mono or ≤233dtex multi) and mesh size (10.5-21.6cm stretch) with lab testing to confirm 5608.19.1010 classification

• Include fishery export certificates from origin country to avoid CITES scrutiny for salmon bycatch species

• Declare exact knot type (double/triple) and color on commercial invoice; misdeclaration risks reclassification to general fish netting
