About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS classification covers single yarn spun from uncombed cotton fibers, where the cotton content by weight is 85% or more. Specifically, this category applies to yarns with a linear density exceeding 52 metric number (Nm) but not exceeding 80 Nm, and which are not put up for retail sale. The term "other" in the description typically indicates yarn that does not meet the criteria of the preceding sibling category.

The distinction from the sibling category, 5205.14.10.00, lies in the state of the yarn. While both are single yarns of uncombed cotton with a metric number between 52 and 80, this category encompasses yarn that is not unbleached and not mercerized. Therefore, if the yarn has undergone bleaching or mercerization processes, it would fall under this classification, assuming all other criteria are met.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification is determined by the specific thread count range (52-80 Nm) and the processing state (bleached or mercerized, as opposed to unbleached and unmercerized). Practical classification relies on verifying the metric number and observing whether the yarn has been subjected to bleaching or mercerization, distinguishing it from its immediate sibling.
