If measuring less than 106.38 decitex (over 94 metric number)
Finer yarns exceed the decitex upper limit, moving to multiple yarn categories or finer single yarn provisions.
If blended with over 15% synthetic fibers
Material composition exceeding 85% cotton threshold classifies under synthetic staple fiber yarns in Chapter 55.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify yarn fineness using the nm formula from US notes (meters per kg / 1000) to confirm it falls between 80-94 metric number
• Provide mill test certificates documenting fiber content (85%+ cotton) and combed processing to avoid reclassification
• Ensure no retail packaging; bulk spools or cones only, as retail puts it under heading 5205 subheadings for consumer sale
