Written to help non-specialists understand this page. Rates, dates, and legal facts come from the official records above and on the linked source.
HTS heading 5107 covers yarn made from combed wool that is not put up for retail sale. In plain language, this generally means wool yarn made from fibers that have been combed to align them before spinning, and presented in commercial formats such as cones, tubes, or other packages intended for manufacturing or trade rather than direct consumer sale. The heading is a broad product category, not the final classification.
To narrow the product to an 8-digit HTS code, read the subheadings and statistical provisions under heading 5107. The distinctions commonly depend on the yarn’s fiber composition or wool type, such as whether it is made from fine animal hair or other wool, and on the applicable tariff description. Confirm the product’s construction, fiber content, packaging, and any legal notes or classification instructions in the current HTSUS. A customs broker or classification specialist may be needed when the fiber blend or product specifications are unclear.
What to check
- Verify that the yarn is made from combed wool and is actually yarn, not roving, fabric, or another textile material.
- Confirm that the packaging is not intended for retail sale; keep product photos, labels, and commercial invoices available as evidence.
- Obtain the exact fiber composition and identify whether the material is wool or a different animal hair covered by a separate provision.
- Read every subordinate line under heading 5107, including indents, legal notes, and statistical descriptions, before selecting the 8-digit code.
- Use the product’s technical specifications and consult a customs broker when the combing process, blend, or intended presentation is uncertain.

How to find your code in this category
A heading is a product category. To get the exact duty, narrow from this 4-digit heading to a sub-category (usually by material), then open the 8-digit code that matches your product.
Open any code in the tables below to see its exact duty rate, a duty calculator (enter your shipment value → estimated duty and landed cost), the rate-change history chart, and the country-by-country breakdown (including Section 301/232 add-on duties).
Why you have to click in: a single category can contain products with very different duties. The rate depends on the specific product — its material and construction — and on the country of origin, and those only get pinned down at the 8-digit code level. That is why this page points you to codes instead of showing one rate for the whole category.
Sub-categories
| Code | Description |
