5112.19.60Same rate: 60%

If wool content is 70-85% blended with other fibers

High wool content (>85%) dictates 5112.11; blends drop to 5112.19 per chapter material composition rules.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify clean yield certification and fiber diameter testing per US notes to confirm 18.5 microns or less for duty qualification

Provide mill test reports documenting ≥85% wool content and weight under 200g/m² to avoid reclassification

Ensure no blending with synthetic fibers exceeding 15% to prevent shifting to mixed fabric headings
