Chapter 53: Vegetable fibres

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 530620 when importing or exporting multiple (folded) or cabled yarn made from flax. This could include shipments of cabled flax yarn used in textiles or crafts, often sold in spools or skeins.

This code specifically covers yarn that has been twisted together in a way that enhances its strength and durability, distinguishing it from simpler flax yarns classified under HS-6 530610. If you're dealing with single-strand flax yarn, consider that code instead.

Flax yarn is highly valued for its natural properties, making it popular in the production of linen fabrics. Cabled or multiple yarns are often used in heavier textiles or specialty applications, such as upholstery or artisanal crafts.

When classifying your product, ensure that the yarn is indeed cabled or multiple, as this affects the HS code. If your product is a blend or contains synthetic fibers, it may fall under a different classification.
