5206.22.00.00 - Exceeding 14 nm but not exceeding 43 nm (301)

This HTS category, 5206.22.00.00, specifically covers single yarns of cotton, made from combed fibers, where the yarn's fineness falls within a particular range. The defining characteristic is its "nm" (Ne Mill) count, meaning the yarn is finer than 14 nm but not exceeding 43 nm. These yarns are not intended for retail sale in this form.

This classification is distinguished from its siblings based solely on the yarn's fineness, measured in nanometers (nm). For instance, 5206.21.00.00 covers finer single combed cotton yarns (not exceeding 14 nm), while 5206.23.00.00 and subsequent categories include progressively coarser yarns that exceed 43 nm. The "combed fibers" aspect is a prerequisite for all categories within 5206.2, ensuring a higher degree of fiber alignment and uniformity.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS, there are no further subdivisions within 5206.22.00.00. Therefore, the classification hinges entirely on meeting the specified yarn count range. When classifying goods, verifying the yarn's fineness through appropriate testing or manufacturer documentation is crucial to ensure accurate placement within this specific HTS code.
