U.S. imports of paper, paperboard & paper pulp bobbins & spools for winding textile yarn (HS 482210) totaled $358K in April 2026, traded with 7 countries.
Last updated: April 2026 dataPaper and paperboard bobbins, spools, cops, and similar tubular supports used specifically for winding textile yarn are a niche industrial input classified under 4822100000. Italy leads US supply, reflecting that country's deep integration with global textile machinery and yarn-winding equipment manufacturing, with Turkey and India also among the leading sources. These supports must be distinguished from general paper tubes and cores (heading 4823) by their specific end-use in textile yarn winding; commercial invoices and technical specifications should clearly identify the intended textile application to support correct classification.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The operative criterion is end-use: bobbins, spools, and cops of a kind used for winding textile yarn fall under 4822100000, while general-purpose paper tubes, cores, and similar hollow cylinders not specifically designed for textile yarn winding are classified under heading 4823. Physical dimensions, flange design, and commercial documentation identifying the textile-industry customer or application are key evidence for the classification.
No. Heading 4822.10 explicitly covers supports of paper pulp, paper, or paperboard, so all three material forms are captured within the same 10-digit line (4822100000) provided the article is of a kind used for winding textile yarn. The material distinction does not create separate tariff lines within this heading.
