Import Tips
• Ensure the rubber coating is visible to the naked eye to qualify under 5911.10.00, as fabrics with invisible coatings may fall under other headings
• Keep records of the textile composition and weight to support classification
• Verify if the blanket is considered 'made up' under Section XI Note 7, which could affect classification
