What is HS code 510990?
HS code 510990 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Yarn of wool or of fine animal hair, put up for retail sale : Other". The first two digits (51) are the chapter — Wool, fine or coarse animal hair; horsehair yarn and fabric — and digits 3-4 (5109) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 510990?
Common products classified under 510990 include retail blend yarn, mixed yarn, hand knitting blend, retail wool blend and similar items matching yarn of wool or of fine animal hair. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 510990?
Duty is set by the destination country, not by the 6-digit HS code alone. Start from the official tariff of your market — USITC HTS (US), TARIC / Access2Markets (EU), GOV.UK Trade Tariff (UK), CBSA (Canada), ABF (Australia) or Singapore Customs — and look up the full national code with China as the country of origin.
Is HS code 510990 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (510990) are the same worldwide under the WCO Harmonized System. Beyond that, each country extends the code (HTS in the US, TARIC in the EU, etc.) and sets its own duty and tax rates.
Can I trust the HS code a 1688 supplier gives me?
Treat a supplier-provided code as a clue, not a final classification. It can be incomplete, China-export-specific, or mismatched to your destination's rules. Verify against the official tariff and your product's actual material and use.
