Import Tips
• Distinguish tufted terry from woven terry towelling (heading 58.02 also covers woven terry, but the tufted type is specifically 5802.30.00)
• Verify the silk waste content exceeds 85% by weight to qualify for this classification
• If the fabric is made up (e.g
• hemmed into towels), it may be classified as a made-up article elsewhere
