Ramie Woven Shawl from China
An elegant, lightweight shawl handwoven from ramie (a bast fiber), featuring subtle textures ideal for formal wear or summer evenings. It qualifies for HTS 6214.90.00.90 as 'other textile materials' since ramie is neither cotton, wool, silk, nor man-made fibers listed in earlier subheadings. Made-up and not knitted.

Import Tips
• Obtain fiber identification certificates for bast fibers like ramie to support classification outside common materials
• Declare exact dimensions and use (e.g
• not for babies under 6209) to avoid prima facie shifts to other headings
• Watch for blending with cotton, which could pull it into 6214.40 if over certain thresholds
