5108 20 — Combed yarn of fine animal hair (excl. that of wool and that put up for retail sale)
Combed yarn of fine animal hair (excl. that of wool and that put up for retail sale)
Names come in English where the EU Combined Nomenclature publishes them — chapters, headings and subheadings, whose first six digits are the same Harmonized System; deeper EAEU detail is a machine translation, marked as such. Official texts — tariff notes, measures, lists and classification rulings — are the original: customs and your broker go by that wording. Where we show a machine translation of them, it is marked; where our quality check rejected one, the Russian stays.

This yarn may be subjected to the treatment referred to in point (I)(B)(1) of the general provisions of Section XI.
