5402.47.90 - Other

HTS code 5402.47.90 encompasses "Other" synthetic filament yarns of polyester that are not sewing thread and are not put up for retail sale. This category specifically covers single, untwisted or low-twist (not exceeding 50 turns per meter) polyester filament yarns that do not fall under more specific subheadings within 5402.47.

This "Other" designation distinguishes 5402.47.90 from its sibling category, 5402.47.10. The sibling category is exclusively for wholly polyester yarns that are between 75 and 80 decitex and contain precisely 24 filaments. Therefore, any polyester filament yarn meeting the general criteria of 5402.47 but not fitting the exact specifications of 5402.47.10 will be classified under 5402.47.90.

Within HTS code 5402.47.90, further distinctions are made based on the yarn's construction and twist. Subcategory 5402.47.90.20 covers monofilament yarns or multifilament yarns that are either untwisted or have a twist of less than 5 turns per meter. In contrast, subcategory 5402.47.90.40 is reserved for multifilament polyester yarns that possess a twist of 5 turns or more per meter. These subcategories provide crucial criteria for distinguishing between different types of polyester filament yarns within this broad "Other" classification.
