If finer yarn exceeding 14 nm
Yarns over 14 nm are classified separately under 5205.12 to distinguish finer counts used in lightweight fabrics.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify yarn number using official nm calculation (meters/kg ÷ 1000) and provide lab test reports confirming ≥85% cotton content and uncombed fibers
• Include commercial invoice detailing exact nm count, fiber staple length, and end-use to avoid misclassification as finer yarns or sewing thread
• Be aware of U.S. cotton import quotas on raw fibers; ensure supplier documentation proves compliance for uncombed processing
