CHAPTER 59
IMPREGNATED, COATED, COVERED OR LAMINATED TEXTILE FABRICS; TEXTILE ARTICLES OF A KIND SUITABLE FOR INDUSTRIAL USE
Notes
-
- Except where the context otherwise requires, for the purposes of this chapter, the expression ‘textile fabrics’ applies only to the woven fabrics of Chapters 50 to 55 and heading Nos 5803 and 5806, the braids and ornamental trimmings in the piece of heading No 5808 and the knitted or crocheted fabrics of heading No 6002.
-

- (a) textile fabrics, impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with plastics, whatever the weight per square metre and whatever the nature of the plastic material (compact or cellular), other than:
- (1) fabrics in which the impregnation, coating or covering cannot be seen with the naked eye (usually Chapters 50 to 55, 58 or 60); for the purpose of this provision, no account should be taken of any resulting change of colour;
- (2) products which cannot, without fracturing, be bent manually around a cylinder of a diameter of 7 mm, at a temperature between 15 and 30 oC (usually Chapter 39);
- (3) products in which the textile fabric is either completely embedded in plastics or entirely coated or covered on both sides with such material, provided that such coating or covering can be seen with the naked eye with no account being taken of any resulting change of colour (Chapter 39);
- (4) fabrics partially coated or partially covered with plastics and bearing designs resulting from these treatments (usually Chapters 50 to 55, 58 or 60);

- (b) fabrics made from yarn, strip or the like, impregnated, coated, covered or sheathed with rubber, of heading No 5604;
- (c) fabrics composed of parallel textile yarns agglomerated with rubber, irrespective of their weight per square metre; and
- (d) plates, sheets or strip of cellular rubber, combined with textile fabric, where the textile fabric is more than mere reinforcement, other than textile products of heading No 5811.
-
- Heading No 5907 does not apply to:
- (a) fabrics in which the impregnation, coating or covering cannot be seen with the naked eye (usually Chapters 50 to 55, 58 or 60); for the purpose of this provision, no account should be taken of any resulting change of colour;

- — evening dress (tailcoat), generally made of black fabric, the jacket of which is relatively short at the front, does not close and has narrow skirts cut in at the hips and hanging down behind,
- — dinner jacket suits, in which the jacket is similar in style to an ordinary jacket (though perhaps revealing more of the shirt front), but has shiny silk or imitation silk lapels.
- (b) The term ‘ensemble’ means a set of garments (other than suits and articles of heading No 6107, 6108 or 6109), composed of several pieces made up in identical fabric, put up for retail sale, and comprising:
- — one garment designed to cover the upper part of the body, with the exception of pullovers which may form a second upper garment in the sole context of twin sets, and of waistcoats which may also form a second upper garment, and
- — one or two different garments, designed to cover the lower part of the body and consisting of trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, shorts (other than swimwear), a skirt or a divided skirt.
All of the components of an ensemble must be of the same fabric construction, style, colour and composition; they also must be of corresponding or compatible size. The term ‘ensemble’ does not apply to track suits or ski suits, of heading No 6112.
-
- Heading Nos 6105 and 6106 do not cover garments with pockets below the waist, with a ribbed waistband or other means of tightening at the bottom of the garment, or garments having an average of less than 10 stitches per linear centimetre in each direction counted on an area measuring at least 10 cm × 10 cm. Heading No 6105 does not cover sleeveless garments.
-
- For the purposes of heading No 6111:
- (a) the expression ‘babies’ garments and clothing accessories' means articles for young children of a body height not exceeding 86 cm; it also covers babies' napkins;
- (b) articles which are prima facie classifiable both within heading No 6111 and within other headings of this chapter are to be classified within heading No 6111.
-
- For the purposes of heading No 6112 ‘ski suits’ means garments or sets of garments which, by their general appearance and texture, are identifiable as intended to be worn principally for skiing (cross-country or alpine). They consist either of:
- (a) a ‘ski overall’, that is, a one-piece garment designed to cover the upper and the lower parts of the body; in addition to sleeves and a collar the ski overall may have pockets or footstraps; or
- (b) a ‘ski ensemble’, that is, a set of garments composed of two or three pieces, put up for retail sale and comprising:
- — one garment such as an anorak, wind-cheater, wind-jacket or similar article, closed by a slide fastener (zipper), possibly with a waistcoat in addition, and
- — one pair of trousers whether or not extending above waist level, one pair of breeches or one bib and brace overall.
The ‘ski ensemble’ may also consist of an overall similar to the one mentioned in paragraph (a) above and a type of padded, sleeveless jacket worn over the overall.
All the components of a ‘ski ensemble’ must be made up in a fabric of the same texture, style and composition whether or not of the same colour; they also must be of corresponding or compatible size.
-
- Garments which are prima facie classifiable both within heading No 6113 and within other headings of this chapter, excluding heading No 6111, are to be classified within heading No 6113.
-
- Garments of this chapter designed for left over right closure at the front shall be regarded as men's or boys' garments, and those designed for right over left closure at the front as women's or girls' garments. These provisions do not apply where the cut of the garment clearly indicates that it is designed for one or other of the sexes.
Garments which cannot be identified as either men's or boys' garments or as women's or girls' garments are to be classified in the headings covering women's or girls' garments.
-
- Articles of this chapter may be made of metal thread.
Additional notes
-
- For the application of note 3 (b) of this chapter the components of an ensemble must be made up entirely in a single identical fabric, subject to compliance with the other conditions laid down in the said note.
For this purpose the fabric used can be unbleached, bleached, dyed, of yarns of different colours or printed.
Sets of garments are not regarded as ensembles when their components are made up in different fabrics, even if the difference is due only to their respective colours.
All the components of an ensemble must be presented together for retail sale as a single unit. Individual wrapping or separate labelling of each component of such a single unit does not influence its classification as an ensemble.
-
- For the purposes of heading No 6109, the terms ‘singlets’ and ‘other vests’ include garments, even if of a fancy design, worn next to the body, without collar, with or without sleeves, including those with shoulder straps.
These garments, which are intended to cover the upper part of the body, often possess many characteristics in common with those of T-shirts or with more traditional kinds of singlets and other vests of heading No 6109.
However, garments having a drawstring, ribbed waistband or other means of tightening at the bottom are excluded from heading No 6109.
