Single Flax Yarn 16/1 for Heavy Canvas from Mexico
This is a coarse single-ply flax yarn with a 16/1 metric count, designed for heavy-weight canvas and upholstery fabrics exceeding 200 g/m². As a single yarn, it is classified under tariff item 5306.10.00, which covers single flax yarn. The yarn's coarseness does not exclude it from this heading, as long as it remains a single yarn and does not exceed the decitex thresholds for twine or cordage.

Import Tips
• Measure the yarn's linear density to ensure it does not exceed 20,000 decitex, which would reclassify it as twine or cordage under Section XI Note 3
• Confirm the yarn is single-ply and not cabled, as cabled yarn falls under 5306.20.00
• Provide end-use documentation if the yarn is for upholstery, as this may support the classification
