Dyed Viscose Twill Fabric from Japan

A durable twill weave fabric uniformly dyed, made from 88% viscose rayon filament, used for trousers and upholstery. It qualifies for HTS 5408.22.90 as 'other' dyed woven artificial filament fabric exceeding 85% rayon content and not matching sheeting or printcloth definitions. Twill structure avoids plain weave statistical exclusions.

Import Tips

• Measure yarn twists to confirm under 472 turns/m for flat fabric status; over classifies differently

• Provide square meter weight certificates (<170gsm keeps options open, but twill stays 'other')

• Avoid bulk packaging mislabeled as greige; dyed status requires proof of uniform coloration
