Rubberized Knitted Nylon Rain Poncho Fabric from China

This knitted nylon textile fabric is coated with rubber to provide waterproofing, commonly used for rain ponchos and outerwear. It falls under HTS 5906.91.30.00 as a knitted or crocheted rubberized textile fabric, other than those of heading 5902, with the rubber coating visible and meeting weight criteria. The impregnation enhances durability and weather resistance without embedding the fabric completely.

Import Tips

• Verify the rubber coating is visible to the naked eye and document weight per m² to confirm it does not exceed 1,500 g/m² or meets the >50% textile rule

• Provide lab test reports proving knitted construction and rubber impregnation to avoid misclassification under Chapters 50-55

• Label fiber content accurately, noting rubberized treatment, to prevent penalties for undervaluation or incorrect declarations
