Overview
This category, HTS 5112.19.95, encompasses woven fabrics that are composed of 85 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair, and are otherwise classified as "other." These fabrics are distinct from those specifically enumerated under sibling categories, such as fabrics made of wool yarns with an average fiber diameter of 18.5 microns or less (5112.19.60). The classification here is for woven wool or fine animal hair fabrics that do not meet the more specific criteria of other designated subheadings within this group.
The distinction from sibling categories is primarily based on the precise physical characteristics of the constituent yarns or the specific type of animal hair used. For instance, while other subheadings might detail fabrics based on fiber diameter or the inclusion of particular types of fine animal hair, this "Other" category serves as a residual classification for woven wool or fine animal hair fabrics that do not fit those more narrowly defined parameters.
This residual classification serves as a holding category for woven fabrics of wool or fine animal hair that meet the 85% threshold but lack the specific attributes that would place them in more detailed subheadings. It is important for importers and exporters to carefully review the composition, construction, and yarn characteristics of their woven wool or fine animal hair fabrics to ensure accurate classification and avoid potential discrepancies.
