Last updated: April 2026 dataLightweight carded-wool and fine-animal-hair wovens at or below 300 g/m² serve the apparel and tailoring sectors, where the carding process produces a softer, more textured hand than combed equivalents. Italy dominates US imports under this heading, consistent with its position as a premier suiting and coating fabric supplier, with Mexico also a significant source under USMCA. The US schedule subdivides this heading across five tariff lines — including handloom constructions (5111113000) and fine-animal-hair fabrics (5111117030, 5111117060) — making loom type, fiber composition, and weight documentation essential for accurate entry.

Tariff line 5111113000 applies specifically to handloom-woven fabrics with a loom width under 76 cm, a construction method that must be certified by the exporting country's competent authority. Machine-woven fabrics of the same fiber content and weight fall under the remaining lines. Misclassifying a machine-woven fabric as handloom can trigger penalty proceedings, so supporting documentation from the manufacturer is critical.
Fabrics at or below 300 g/m² fall under 511111, while those exceeding 300 g/m² move to 511119. Weight is measured per square meter of the finished fabric, and even small differences in finishing or finishing shrinkage can shift a fabric across the threshold. Importers should obtain certified weight test reports from the mill to support the declared classification.
