Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 510130 when importing or exporting carbonised wool that has not been carded or combed. For instance, if you're shipping a batch of carbonised wool fibers for textile manufacturing, this code applies directly to your product.
This code specifically covers wool that has undergone a carbonisation process, making it suitable for various industrial applications. In contrast, HS-6 510121 applies to non-carbonised wool, which is often used in high-quality textiles and garments.
When dealing with carbonised wool, it’s important to note that it is typically used in the production of felt, insulation, or as a raw material in other wool processing. This differentiates it from other types of wool that may be used for clothing or upholstery.
If you are unsure whether your wool product fits here, consider its processing stage. Wool that has been carded or combed would fall under different HS codes, such as HS-6 510210 for carded wool.
