Heading 5111 — Woven fabrics of carded wool or of carded fine animal hair
Chapter 51: Wool, fine or coarse animal hair
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 511119 when importing or exporting heavy woven fabrics made from carded wool or fine animal hair, specifically those weighing over 300g/m2. An example would be a shipment of wool blankets or upholstery fabric that meets these criteria.
This code applies to fabrics containing 85% or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair, distinguishing it from HS-6 511120, which covers lighter fabrics. If your fabric is under 300g/m2, you would need to look at different classifications.
When classifying your product, ensure it meets the weight requirement; otherwise, it may fall under a different HS code. Fabrics like woolen suits or heavy woolen coats are typical examples that would qualify under this HS-6 line.
If you’re unsure about the percentage of wool or the weight of your fabric, consider consulting with a customs broker for accurate classification. Misclassification can lead to delays or additional duties.
