U.S. imports of woven fabrics of artificial staple fibers, under 85%, mixed with wool or fine animal hair, different colored yarns (HS 551633) totaled $16K in April 2026, traded with 7 countries.
Woven Fabrics of Artificial Staple Fibers, Under 85%, Mixed with Wool or Fine Animal Hair, Different Colored Yarns imports of $16K in April 2026 ran 52% below the year-to-date monthly average of $34K.
Last updated: April 2026 dataYarn-dyed construction is the defining characteristic here: fabrics must be woven from differently colored yarns rather than piece-dyed or printed after weaving, placing them in a distinct classification from otherwise similar wool-blend wovens. The US schedule subdivides this heading by fine animal hair processing state — combed versus not combed (5516330510 and 5516330520) — a distinction that directly affects duty treatment and requires accurate fiber documentation at entry. Belgium and France are the leading suppliers, with Italy and the United Kingdom also prominent, reflecting the concentration of high-end suiting and coating fabric production in Western Europe. Importers should confirm the precise wool or fine animal hair content by weight, as blends at or above 85% artificial staple fiber would reclassify entirely.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The US breaks out fabrics containing 36% or more by weight of fine animal hair into two separate 10-digit lines — 5516330510 for uncombed and 5516330520 for combed — because the processing state of the animal hair affects fiber classification and can affect duty rates. Importers must obtain mill certifications confirming whether the animal hair component was combed before weaving.
Fabrics must contain less than 85% by weight of artificial staple fibers to fall here; if artificial staple fiber content meets or exceeds 85%, the fabric classifies under a different heading in Chapter 55 regardless of the wool or fine animal hair blend. Accurate laboratory fiber analysis is essential to support the declared classification.
