Import Tips
• Provide filament diameter and linear density measurements to support 6815 classification over Chapter 54 synthetics
• For recreational end-uses, note non-electrical applications in commercial invoices to avoid scrutiny
• Avoid declaring as 'filament yarn'; specify 'carbon fiber tow' to prevent duty reassessment
