It falls under HTS 5407.61.91.00 due to its precise yarn specifications and high polyester filament content exceeding 85% non-textured. The tight twist ensures durability and smooth drape for apparel linings.

Import Tips

Verify yarn decitex, filament count, and twist per meter via lab testing to confirm classification under 5407.61.91.00

Provide mill test certificates documenting 100% polyester composition and non-textured filaments to avoid reclassification

Watch for blending errors; even minor non-polyester content shifts to broader 5407 categories with different duties
