Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the Homburg is imported in an unfinished state for use in hat manufacturing
This item applies to fur-felt or wool-felt headgear intended for further manufacture, which may have different duty rates.
If the hat is a beret or other specific style not considered a felt hat (e.g., knitted or crocheted)
This item covers other hats, hoods, caps, bonnets, or berets made from textile fabrics, not specifically felt.
If the Homburg is made by sewing strips of felt (not from a single plateaux)
Hats made by sewing strips in spirals are classified under heading 65.04, not 65.05, per chapter note 2.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify that the Homburg is fully finished (lined, trimmed, shaped) to avoid classification as a hat body under 65.01
• If the mink fur originates from a country subject to sanctions or trade restrictions, confirm admissibility with CBSA
• Consider using a customs broker to ensure accurate valuation of the fur content for duty calculation
