Import Tips
• Document the paper yarn sourcing and twisting process to prove it's not paperboard or plain paper, ensuring Chapter 65 textile status
• For lined versions, ensure lining is textile to avoid reclassification; non-textile linings may trigger other material headings
• Batch imports by color/dye to simplify duty assessments, as paper yarn dyes can affect perceived composition
