Last updated: April 2026 dataLaminated fabrics and otherwise impregnated or coated textiles that do not fit the more specific headings of Chapter 59 — along with painted canvas for theatrical scenery, studio backdrops, and ballet productions — are collected here. The US schedule carves out laminated fabrics of man-made fibers for theatrical/ballet/opera use (5907000500) separately from commercial laminated man-made fabrics (5907001500), and parallel lines exist for non-man-made fiber constructions. Impregnated fabrics of man-made fibers for general industrial use fall under 5907006000, while vegetable-fiber and other residual constructions occupy 5907008010 and 5907008090 respectively.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Laminated fabrics under heading 5907 are those bonded to one or more layers of plastics or other materials where the laminate is not rubber (which would go to 5906) and the product is not a floor covering (5904) or wall covering (5905). The key is that no more specific heading in Chapter 59 applies; heading 5907 is a residual catch-all for impregnated, coated, or covered textile fabrics not elsewhere specified.
Yes — the US schedule separates laminated fabrics destined for theatrical, ballet, or opera use from those for other commercial purposes, and the applicable tariff lines differ. Importers claiming the theatrical-use classification should retain purchase orders, contracts, or end-use certifications from the production company or venue to support the classification if questioned by CBP.
