Heading 5103 — Waste of wool or of fine or coarse animal hair, including yarn waste but excluding garnetted stock
Chapter 51: Wool, fine or coarse animal hair
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 510330 when importing or exporting waste of coarse animal hair, including yarn waste. For example, if you're shipping leftover wool from textile production that can't be reused, this code applies.
This code specifically covers waste from coarse animal hair, which can include remnants from manufacturing processes. In contrast, HS-6 510331 is for waste from fine animal hair, such as cashmere or merino wool, which has different handling and classification requirements.
When classifying your products, remember that this HS-6 line excludes garnetted stock, which is processed differently. If your shipment consists of unprocessed wool waste or yarn remnants, 510330 is the correct choice.
If you're unsure whether your product qualifies as waste or if it falls under another category, consult with a customs broker for guidance, especially if your materials are mixed or contain other fibers.
