Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If sold in continuous rolls, not cut to size
Bulk nonwoven rolls >25-70 g/m² classify under 5603.12 as unfinished fabrics, not ready-for-use articles.
If paper-based rather than textile nonwoven
Paper disposable wipes fall under Chapter 48; textile fiber content determines chapter placement.
If pre-impregnated with soap or detergent
Saturated wipes treated as soap-based cleaning preparations under Chapter 34, not plain nonwovens.

Import Tips & Compliance
