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 category, 5509.69.60.00, specifically classifies yarn made from synthetic staple fibers, which are not put up for retail sale. Within the broader group of "Other yarn, of acrylic or modacrylic staple fibers," this subdivision further refines the classification by excluding yarns that are mixed with artificial staple fibers. Therefore, the products falling under this heading are composed solely of acrylic or modacrylic staple fibers and are intended for industrial or commercial use rather than direct consumer purchase.

The defining characteristic of this category is its exclusivity to acrylic or modacrylic staple fibers, meaning any admixture with artificial staple fibers would necessitate classification under a different subheading. It represents the final level of detail for yarns meeting these specific material and packaging criteria, distinguishing them from any potential blends.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. This means that any yarn meeting the preceding criteria (synthetic staple fibers, not for retail sale, acrylic or modacrylic, and not mixed with artificial staple fibers) will be classified here. Examples of such yarns could include those used in the manufacturing of textiles for apparel, home furnishings, or industrial applications where the specific properties of acrylic or modacrylic fibers are desired.
