Napped Polyester Pillowcase with Lace Trim from Mexico
This pillowcase is made from napped man-made fiber fabric, primarily polyester, featuring delicate lace edging for a luxurious touch. It falls under HTS 6302.32.1010 due to its napped surface (666), embroidery-like lace trim, and classification as a non-bolster pillowcase in the bed linen category of Chapter 63. The napping process creates a soft, plush texture ideal for bedding.

Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 85% man-made fibers via lab testing to confirm classification outside cotton headings
• Document napping process and trim details (lace as 'edging') in invoices to avoid reclassification as plain pillowcases
• Ensure country-of-origin labeling complies with FTC rules; common pitfall is misdeclaring trim as non-qualifying applique
