Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the yarn is multiple (folded) or cabled rather than single
This heading covers multiple or cabled yarns of synthetic staple fibres, which are classified separately from single yarns.
If the yarn contains less than 85% synthetic staple fibres but is mixed mainly with wool or fine animal hair
Yarns with a lower synthetic content are classified under other subheadings of heading 55.09 based on the second predominant fibre.
If the yarn is put up for retail sale
Yarns of synthetic staple fibres packaged for retail sale are classified under heading 55.11, not 55.09.
