Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If single yarn nm under 14 nm (coarser)
Coarser combed multiple yarns (<14 nm/single) go to 5205.41.00; fineness determines subheading within 5205.4.
If staple fibers exceed 85% total weight blend
Blends dropping below 85% cotton shift out of Chapter 52 to man-made staple fiber yarns in Chapter 55.
If containing <85% cotton
Yarns with 65-85% cotton classify under 5206.42.00 in the same nm range, as Chapter 52 prioritizes cotton content.
