Last updated: August 2026 dataFineness of the constituent yarn — specifically, a single-yarn measure of less than 67 decitex — is the technical threshold that places sheer women's stockings in this heading, distinguishing them from heavier hosiery products. At sub-67 decitex, these are typically ultra-sheer nylon or silk-blend stockings used in fashion and formalwear markets, where denier count is a primary commercial specification. Accurate decitex measurement is essential at classification, as laboratory testing may be required to confirm yarn fineness when CBP questions the declared specification.

The 67 decitex limit applies to the single yarn — not a plied or twisted combination — used in the hosiery construction. Decitex is the weight in grams of 10,000 meters of yarn; a single yarn below 67 decitex is considered fine or sheer. If the yarn is plied, the measurement is taken on the individual strand before plying. CBP may require ASTM or ISO-standard laboratory testing to verify the decitex count when it is not clearly documented.
Yes, provided the single-yarn fineness is below 67 decitex and the article is a women's full-length or knee-length stocking. Fiber type — nylon, silk, or other synthetic — does not determine placement in this heading; the decitex threshold and garment format do. However, fiber content still affects the specific HTS subheading and duty rate within the broader chapter.
