Harmonized System Classification Hierarchy
Complete Tariff Product Description
What is classified under HS Code 5106.20.00?
HS Code 5106.20.00 covers yarn of carded wool, containing less than 85% by weight of wool, not put up for retail sale. In commercial practice these goods are traded as Wool Blend Yarn made of Wool / Acrylic Blend, and buyers, factories and customs brokers most often refer to them as wool blend yarn, carded wool acrylic yarn, poly wool yarn.
The code is read level by level: Section XI (Textiles and Textile Articles) narrows to Chapter 51 (Wool, Fine or Coarse Animal Hair), then Heading 5106 (Yarn of carded wool, not put up for retail sale) and Subheading 5106.20 (Containing <85% wool), ending at the 8-digit tariff line 5106.20.00. The first six digits follow the WCO international standard and stay the same in every country; the final two digits are the national subdivision used for duty assessment and trade statistics.
- Classification is decided by the heading text and the material and construction it names — here, Wool / Acrylic Blend and Wool Blend Yarn.
- If a shipment mixes this product with other textile articles, each item is classified under its own heading; goods put up in sets follow the essential-character rule (GIR 3).
- When the same product exists in several materials, the material named in this code (Wool / Acrylic Blend) is the one that must appear on the invoice and packing list.
How to declare HS Code 5106.20.00
- Commercial invoice: print 5106.20.00 next to the item description (Wool Blend Yarn) with the material composition (Wool / Acrylic Blend) matching the code text exactly.
- Packing list: keep quantities, net and gross weights and carton counts consistent with the invoice line for this code.
- Certificate of Origin & Bill of Lading: repeat the same code so bank document checkers under an L/C and customs officers see one consistent classification across all documents.
- Before shipment: verify the code against the destination country's current tariff schedule — duty rates, restrictions and required certificates are set nationally, not by the HS code itself.
