Overview

This HTS category, 5109.90.40.00, specifically classifies yarn made from Angora rabbit hair that is presented for retail sale. This means the yarn is packaged in a manner suitable for direct purchase by end-users, such as in skeins, balls, or small hanks, with labels indicating weight or yardage. The defining characteristic is the material composition – exclusively Angora rabbit hair, which is known for its softness, fluffiness, and lightweight properties.

Within the broader category of "Other" yarns of wool or fine animal hair put up for retail sale, this particular classification is distinct due to its specific fiber content. While other "Other" categories might cover blends of animal hair or different types of fine animal hair not originating from Angora rabbits, this code is narrowly focused on pure Angora rabbit hair yarn. Therefore, classification hinges on confirming the sole or predominant use of Angora rabbit hair and the retail packaging.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subdivisions. The classification process for goods falling under 5109.90.40.00 requires careful examination of the yarn's material composition to ensure it consists of Angora rabbit hair and that its presentation is indeed intended for retail sale. Documentation, such as manufacturer declarations or laboratory analysis, may be necessary to substantiate the Angora rabbit hair content.
