Importers of Woven Fabrics of Combed Wool or Fine Animal Hair, Under 85%, Mixed Mainly with Other Fibers paid $165K in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 25% on $668K in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataWorsted-spun wool and fine animal hair fabrics blended below the 85% threshold with predominantly natural non-manmade fibers — cotton, silk, linen, and similar — serve luxury apparel and bespoke tailoring markets where fiber purity and hand are paramount. The combing process aligns fibers for a smooth, lustrous surface that distinguishes these blends from carded equivalents, and the 'other fibers' classification signals that synthetic content is not the dominant complement. Accurate fiber composition certificates from the weaving mill are critical, as the boundary between this heading and the manmade-blend counterpart turns entirely on which non-wool fiber group predominates by weight.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The heading requires that fibers other than manmade materials be the predominant blending component — not that any single natural fiber dominate. If the combined weight of natural non-wool fibers (e.g., silk plus cotton) exceeds the manmade fiber content, the fabric qualifies here regardless of whether silk alone is a minor share.
Fabrics testing close to 85% wool by weight are vulnerable to reclassification if CBP laboratory analysis yields a slightly different result than the mill certificate. Importers should request multiple fiber analyses and build a tolerance buffer into their sourcing specifications to avoid unexpected duty exposure from heading shifts.
