Rayon-Lambswool Herringbone Fabric from Japan
This is a herringbone weave fabric made from rayon filament yarns in contrasting colours, blended mainly with lambswool for softness. It is classified under tariff item 5407.93.00 because it is a woven fabric of synthetic filament yarn (rayon is a man-made filament) with yarns of different colours, and the rayon predominates by weight over the lambswool.

Import Tips
• Confirm that rayon (artificial filament) predominates by weight over lambswool to justify classification in Chapter 54
• Note that if lambswool predominates, the fabric may fall under Chapter 51 instead
• Ensure the yarns are of different colours and the fabric is not 'made up' within the meaning of Section XI Note 7
