175s Combed Compact Spun Yarn from Germany
This is a compact spun 2-ply yarn made from combed cotton fibres, with each single yarn measuring less than 83.33 decitex (175 metric number). The compact spinning process reduces hairiness, but the yarn remains a multiple (folded) yarn of combed fibres containing 85% or more cotton by weight, so it falls under tariff item 5205.48.00.

Import Tips
• Compact spinning does not affect tariff classification; the yarn is classified based on its construction (multiple or folded) and fineness
• Ensure the yarn is not put up for retail sale and that the cotton content is at least 85% by weight
• Provide technical specifications to the CBSA if requested to confirm the single yarn fineness exceeds 120 metric number
