Vinyl-Coated Cotton Wallpaper Rolls from Germany
These textile wall coverings consist of a woven cotton fabric surface impregnated with vinyl for durability, permanently backed with affixed paper to facilitate pasting on walls. They meet HTS 5905.00.10.00 as they are in rolls over 45 cm wide, suitable for wall decoration with a treated textile surface fixed to a paper backing. The visible textile face distinguishes them from paper-based coverings.

Import Tips
• Verify roll width exceeds 45 cm and paper backing is permanently affixed to qualify under 5905; provide lab tests if disputed
• Include detailed invoices specifying textile composition, treatment process, and g/m² weight to avoid reclassification to chapter 48
