Import Tips
• Confirm that the artificial staple fibres (e.g
• polyester) are less than 85% by weight and that wool is the predominant other fibre, as per Section Note 2
• If the fabric is used for upholstery and is coated or laminated, it may fall under Chapter 59 instead
• Ensure the fabric is not 'made up' (e.g
• cut to shape) at the time of import, as that would change classification
