HTS heading 5112 is a broad product category for woven fabrics made from combed wool or combed fine animal hair. “Woven” means the fabric is made by interlacing yarns, rather than by knitting, crocheting, felting, or being a nonwoven textile. “Combed” describes fiber preparation in which fibers are aligned and shorter fibers are removed before spinning. Fine animal hair can include fibers such as cashmere or similar specialty animal fibers, depending on the applicable tariff definitions.
The four-digit heading is only the starting point. To reach the specific eight-digit HTS code, read the subdivisions beneath heading 5112 and match the fabric’s legally relevant characteristics. These commonly include the principal fiber or fiber blend, whether the material is wool or another fine animal hair, and technical details such as fabric weight or other listed construction features. Use the wording of the current HTSUS, its chapter and section notes, and any applicable statistical descriptions; do not choose a code based only on a commercial name such as “wool cloth.”
What to check
- Confirm that the product is a woven fabric, not knitted, felted, coated, or another textile construction.
- Verify that the fibers were combed and identify whether they are wool, fine animal hair, or a blend.
- Obtain the fiber percentages, fabric weight, width, and construction details from the mill or supplier.
- Read every eight-digit option and the relevant Chapter 51 and section notes before selecting a code.
- Compare the proposed classification with binding rulings or ask a customs broker when fiber composition, processing, or blended-material rules are unclear.

How to find your code in this category
A heading is a product category. To get the exact duty, narrow from this 4-digit heading to a sub-category (usually by material), then open the 8-digit code that matches your product.
Open any code in the tables below to see its exact duty rate, a duty calculator (enter your shipment value → estimated duty and landed cost), the rate-change history chart, and the country-by-country breakdown (including Section 301/232 add-on duties).
Why you have to click in: a single category can contain products with very different duties. The rate depends on the specific product — its material and construction — and on the country of origin, and those only get pinned down at the 8-digit code level. That is why this page points you to codes instead of showing one rate for the whole category.
