French Linen Damask Napkins from Germany

Elegant damask-woven napkins made from French flax, featuring subtle jacquard patterns that do not exceed a 20% embroidery limit. These are classified as other table linen of flax because the damask weave is a plain finishing technique, not a decorative addition that would trigger a different subheading, and they are made-up articles of flax.

Import Tips

• Confirm the damask pattern is woven into the fabric and not applied as embroidery or printing, as this could affect classification

• Keep records of the flax content and origin to support the declared tariff item

• Check if the napkins are considered 'made up' under Section XI Note 7
