Chapter 51: Wool, fine or coarse animal hair

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 510320 when importing or exporting waste of wool or fine animal hair, such as leftover yarn scraps from textile production. This code specifically covers waste that is not processed into garnetted stock.

This classification is distinct from HS-6 510310, which pertains to waste from coarse animal hair. If you're dealing with fine wool waste, HS-6 510320 is the correct choice.

Be mindful that products classified under this code must not include garnetted stock or noils, which are processed differently. Ensure your shipment aligns with these specifications to avoid classification issues.
