Last updated: April 2026 dataClassified as a residual "not elsewhere specified" category, single artificial filament yarn in this heading covers viscose rayon, cupro, modal, and similar regenerated-cellulose continuous-filament constructions wound on industrial packages rather than retail spools. The single-ply construction and bulk industrial packaging distinguish it from plied or retail-packed yarns, affecting both duty classification and end-use suitability for weaving and knitting mills. Importers should confirm fiber content and twist specifications, as misclassification between synthetic and artificial filament categories is a common audit trigger.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Artificial filament yarns are made from regenerated natural polymers — primarily cellulose-based fibers such as viscose rayon, cupro, and modal — while synthetic filament yarns derive from petrochemical polymers like polyester or nylon. The distinction is critical at the fiber-content declaration stage and determines which SITC or HTS heading applies.
Industrial (non-retail) packaging typically means large cones, cheeses, or beams intended for mill use. This packaging condition is a classification criterion that separates industrial trade flows from consumer-oriented imports, and it can affect applicable duty rates and quota eligibility under certain trade programs.
