Polyester-Cotton Slub Yarn for Fashion Fabrics from Japan

This is a slub yarn with irregular thick-thin polyester staple (30%) and cotton (70%) for textured fashion suiting. It falls under tariff item 5509.92.00 because it is yarn of synthetic staple fibres, not put up for retail sale, and is mixed mainly or solely with cotton; the slub effect does not change the fibre classification.

Import Tips

• Ensure the yarn is not put up for retail sale to meet the tariff item's scope

• Declare the fibre blend (30% polyester, 70% cotton) to CBSA; the slub effect is a manufacturing characteristic, not a classification factor

• Keep production records showing the blend ratio
