Import Tips
• The selvedge edge does not affect classification, as the fabric is still a woven fabric of artificial staple fibres
• Ensure the polyester content is less than 85% by weight and cotton is the main other fibre
• The selvedge is a characteristic of the weaving process and does not make the fabric 'made up' within the meaning of Section XI Note 7
