Import Tips
• Document end-use in rubber compounding with purchase orders to justify specific subheading
• Test for exact impregnation type; non-RFL treatments may shift to broader 'other yarn' categories
• Label shipments clearly as 'not for textile weaving' to avoid confusion with apparel yarn headings
