Chapter 51: Wool, fine or coarse animal hair
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 510529 when importing or exporting wool tops and other combed wool products that are not in fragments. For example, if you're shipping large bales of processed wool ready for textile production, this code applies.
This code specifically covers wool tops, which are long, continuous strands of wool fibers that have been carded and combed. It's important to distinguish this from HS-6 510530, which pertains to combed wool in fragments, often used for different textile applications.
When considering products under this heading, note that HS-6 510529 is focused on high-quality wool that is prepared for spinning or weaving, making it distinct from raw wool or wool waste. This is crucial for manufacturers looking for specific quality and processing standards.
If you're unsure whether your product qualifies under this code, consider whether it is a processed wool top intended for further textile manufacturing rather than raw wool or other animal hair products.
