5810.99.10.00 - Of wool or fine animal hair (414) 🖩

This HTS category, 5810.99.10.00, specifically classifies embroidery that is not made of cotton, man-made fibers, or other vegetable fibers. It covers embroidery that is presented in the piece, in strips, or as individual motifs, where the embroidery is executed on a background fabric composed of wool or fine animal hair. This includes items like decorative trimmings, appliques, or fabric panels where the embroidery thread itself is also predominantly of wool or fine animal hair, or where the primary visible textile component of the embroidery is of these materials.

In contrast to its sibling category, 5810.99.90.00, which covers "Other" embroidery not specified by material, this category is narrowly defined by its composition. While the sibling might encompass embroidery on less common or mixed textile bases not fitting specific material exclusions, 5810.99.10.00 is exclusively for embroidery on wool or fine animal hair fabrics. This distinction is crucial for accurate tariff application, ensuring that goods with a wool or fine animal hair base are correctly identified.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification is finalized at this point based on the specific material composition of the background fabric used for the embroidery. Therefore, the key determinant for classifying goods under 5810.99.10.00 is the presence of wool or fine animal hair as the primary textile material of the fabric onto which the embroidery is applied.
