Brushed Blue Denim Cotton-Poly Blend from United States
This brushed blue denim fabric is a twill weave made from cotton and less than 85% polyester staple fibres, with yarns of different colours creating the denim appearance. The brushing process does not alter its classification under tariff item 5516.43.00, as it remains a woven fabric of artificial staple fibres mixed mainly with cotton and made from yarns of different colours.

Import Tips
• The brushing finish does not affect classification, but ensure the fabric is not considered 'made up' (e.g
• cut to shape or hemmed) as that would exclude it from Chapter 55
• Provide a detailed product specification sheet to your customs broker, including fibre percentages and weave construction
• Be aware that the fabric must not be impregnated, coated, or laminated with plastics or rubber, which would move it to another chapter
