Viscose Jacquard Handkerchief from Japan

A jacquard-patterned viscose rayon handkerchief, 47cm x 47cm, marketed as a luxurious gift item. Viscose rayon is a man-made fibre, and since it is not silk, it falls under 'other textile materials' for handkerchiefs. The square shape and made-up edges (hemmed) qualify it for this tariff item.

Import Tips

• Ensure the viscose is not blended with another fibre that would change classification; if it contains elastomeric yarn, note Section XI Note 13

• Declare the jacquard weave accurately, as it may affect the fabric's identity

• Verify the dimensions (under 60cm per side) to avoid classification as a scarf
