Importers of Multiple or Cabled Acrylic or Modacrylic Staple Fiber Yarn, ≥85% Acrylic/Modacrylic, Not for Retail Sale paid $161K in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 20% on $804K in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataMultiple or cabled yarns composed of 85% or more acrylic or modacrylic staple fiber — two or more single strands twisted together — serve weaving and heavy-knit applications where added tensile strength and bulk are required. The sole US tariff line is 5509320000. India and Turkey are the leading sources for this product, with Spain and Romania also contributing supply, reflecting established European and South Asian spinning industries. Fiber content documentation supporting the ≥85% threshold is essential at entry, as misclassification between single and multiple/cabled constructions is a common audit finding.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes. 'Not for retail sale' means the yarn must be imported in forms intended for industrial or commercial use — typically large cones, tubes, or hanks — rather than small consumer skeins with retail labeling. CBP may examine packaging and labeling to confirm the yarn is not in a form suitable for direct retail sale, which would shift classification to a different heading.
Textile yarns from certain origins can be subject to antidumping or countervailing duty orders, and the specific applicability depends on the country of origin and the exact product scope of any active orders at the time of entry. Importers should check the CBP and Commerce Department AD/CVD order database for current orders covering acrylic staple fiber yarn before filing.
