HS Code 51129090: Woven fabrics of combed wool or combed fine animal hair, nesoi

The HS Code 51129090 refers to woven fabrics made of combed wool or combed fine animal hair that are not specified elsewhere. This code is used to classify these fabrics for import and export purposes. It is important to understand the details and implications of this code when dealing with international trade.

When importing or exporting woven fabrics of combed wool or combed fine animal hair, the quantity unit used is square meters (M2). This unit helps in determining the amount of fabric being traded and is essential for accurate pricing and inventory management.

One important aspect to consider when dealing with the HS Code 51129090 is the bound/MFN duty rate. The bound duty rate for this code is set at 25%. The MFN (Most Favored Nation) duty rate is the rate that a country applies to imports from all its trading partners. This means that whenever a country lowers a trade barrier or opens up a market, it has to do so for the same goods or services from all its trading partners. The 25% duty rate applies consistently for this code.

However, there are special tariff preference programs available for certain countries. These programs provide reduced or duty-free rates for imports of woven fabrics of combed wool or combed fine animal hair under the HS Code 51129090. Some of these programs include:
