5109.10.40.00 - Of Angora rabbit hair (400)

This HTS category, "Yarn of wool or of fine animal hair, put up for retail sale: Containing 85 percent or more by weight of wool or of fine animal hair: Other: Of Angora rabbit hair," specifically classifies yarns intended for direct consumer purchase. These yarns must be predominantly composed (85% or more by weight) of wool or fine animal hair. The defining characteristic for this particular subclassification is that the fine animal hair component is Angora rabbit hair.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, which is also designated as "Other" at the same level but does not specify Angora rabbit hair, is crucial for accurate classification. While both fall under yarns of wool or fine animal hair for retail sale, containing at least 85% such fibers, this specific node isolates the product where Angora rabbit hair is the sole or primary fine animal hair content. This distinction is important because Angora rabbit hair possesses unique properties that may influence its end-use and value.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions within this classification. The classification ends here, meaning that any yarn meeting the criteria of being put up for retail sale, containing 85% or more wool or fine animal hair, and consisting of Angora rabbit hair, will be classified under HTS code 5109.10.40.00. Practical classification will rely on verifying the material composition through laboratory testing or manufacturer declarations to confirm the presence and percentage of Angora rabbit hair.
