6-digit subheadings (4)
Official HS 2022 subheading texts. National tariff schedules subdivide these further (8-10 digit lines) and set the actual duty rates.
Elastomeric monofilament; of 67 decitex or more and of which no cross-sectional dimension exceeds 1mm
Monofilament of polypropylene; of 67 decitex or more and of which no cross-sectional dimension exceeds 1mm
Monofilament n.e.c. in heading no 5404; of 67 decitex or more and of which no cross-sectional dimension exceeds 1mm
Filament, synthetic; strip and the like (e.g.. artificial straw), of synthetic textile materials of an apparent width not exceeding 5mm
