155s Combed Gassed Yarn 2-Ply from Germany
This is a gassed (singed) 2-ply yarn made from combed cotton fibres, with single yarn fineness exceeding 120 metric number (less than 83.33 decitex). The gassing process removes surface hair but does not alter the yarn's essential character, so it remains classified as a multiple (folded) yarn of combed fibres under tariff item 5205.48.00.

Import Tips
• Gassing (singeing) does not change the tariff classification of cotton yarn, so no special documentation is required beyond standard import paperwork
• Verify that the yarn is not put up for retail sale and that the cotton content is at least 85% by weight
• Consult the CBSA's tariff classification advice if the gassing process involves any chemical treatment that could affect classification
