If plain weave and not excluded from sheeting
Plain weave flax over 200 g/m² without cabled yarns or low yarn number may qualify as sheeting under 5309.19.30.
If coated or laminated with plastics
Surface treatment with PVC/polyurethane reclassifies to Chapter 59 tarred/painted/coated textile fabrics.
If less than 85% flax with synthetic fibers
Blends dropping below 85% flax threshold move to 5309.59 for mixed flax/other vegetable fibers.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Document bleaching process (chlorine/peroxide) separately from dyeing to maintain 5309.11 classification
• For heavyweight fabrics, provide grammage certificates; common error is assuming all canvas goes to 5907 coated textiles
• Ensure no cabled yarns used, as statistical note (c)(ii)(A) excludes such from sheeting but impacts 'other' proof
