Import Tips
• The lightweight nature of the fabric does not affect classification under tariff item 5516.43.00
• Ensure the acrylic content is less than 85% by weight and cotton is the main other fibre
• The '2% other' fibres should be identified and declared, as they may affect the fibre composition calculation under Section XI Note 2
