Last updated: July 2026 dataChemical or guipure embroidery — where the ground fabric is dissolved after stitching, leaving only the embroidered thread structure — is classified here under a single 10-digit line, 5810100000. This construction is technically distinct from embroidery on a retained ground fabric (headings 5810.91–5810.99) and commands different duty treatment. The product is used in high-end apparel trimmings, bridal wear, and luxury accessories, and its classification requires documentation confirming that no base fabric remains in the finished article.

CBP may conduct a physical examination to confirm that no base fabric is visible or structurally present in the finished article. Manufacturer documentation describing the dissolution or removal process for the ground fabric strengthens the classification claim and reduces the risk of reclassification into a 5810.91 or 5810.92 line.
At the 6-digit and 10-digit level, heading 5810.10 does not subdivide by fiber content — the single line 5810100000 covers all fiber types. However, fiber content remains relevant for textile visa requirements and for determining applicable textile trade-remedy exposure by country of origin.
