Overview
This HTS category, 9902.12.93, specifically designates single filament yarn made from viscose rayon that possesses a twist exceeding 120 turns per meter. It is important to note that this classification is provided for under subheading 5403.32.00, indicating that it is a temporary or special classification. The goods falling under this code are therefore highly specific, relating to a particular type of manufactured textile yarn with defined material composition and physical characteristics.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to explore. Its distinction from sibling categories at the HTS Database Root level lies in its placement within Chapter 99, which is reserved for temporary legislation, modifications, and restrictions, rather than the general chapters that would classify standard textile yarns based on material and construction. While other chapters might cover general viscose rayon yarns, this specific entry addresses a temporary provision, likely due to trade agreements or specific import policies.
The classification of single filament yarn of viscose rayon with a twist exceeding 120 turns/m under 9902.12.93 signifies a temporary measure. This means that imports of such yarns may be subject to unique duties, quotas, or regulations that differ from those applied under the permanent HTS classifications. The presence of this code highlights the dynamic nature of trade regulations and the need to consult current HTS publications for accurate tariff treatment.
