RE: The tariff classification of yarns from Turkey
Dear Ms. Harry-Potter:
In your letter dated May 28. 2019, you requested a tariff classification ruling on behalf of your client, Orchard Yarn. Samples will be retained.
You submitted four yarn samples. The yarns will be imported on skeins of a weight not exceeding 500 grams, which meets the tariff definition of “put up for retail sale” found in Section XI, Note 4(b)(iii), Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).
Re-Tweed, Article #253, is composed of 40 percent wool, 40 percent polyester and 20 percent acrylic. The yarn is three plied and the weight of the skein is 100 grams.
Cobblestone, Article #254, is composed of 100 percent acrylic. The yarn is four plied and the weight of the skein is 100 grams.
Sample #1, Article #001, is composed of 85 percent recycled cotton, and 15 percent polyester. The yarn is four plied and the weight of the skein is 70 grams.
Sample #2, Article #002, is composed of 100 percent recycled cotton. The yarn is four plied and the weight of the skein is 70 grams.
