5307.20.00.00 - Multiple (folded) or cabled

This HTS category, 5307.20.00.00, specifically covers yarn spun from jute or other textile bast fibers of heading 5303 that is presented in a multiple (folded) or cabled form. This means the yarn is not a single strand but has been twisted together from two or more single strands to create a stronger, thicker, or more decorative yarn. Examples include yarns that have been plied or cabled for use in the production of heavier textiles, ropes, or cordage.

This classification is distinguished from its sibling category, 5307.10.00.00, which covers "Single" yarns of jute or other textile bast fibers. The critical difference lies in the construction of the yarn: 5307.10.00.00 refers to yarns made from a single strand, while 5307.20.00.00 applies to yarns formed by twisting two or more single strands together. The number of folds or the method of cabling (e.g., two-ply, three-ply, cabled) is the defining characteristic for this entry.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS classification system, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus remains on the precise definition of multiple (folded) or cabled yarn of jute or other textile bast fibers and its accurate differentiation from single yarns of the same material. Classification under this heading hinges on verifying that the yarn is indeed made from jute or other textile bast fibers and that its construction involves folding or cabling two or more single yarns.
