BTI (Binding Tariff Information) is an official EU customs decision confirming the classification of goods. Valid for 3 years, binding across all EU member states.
Classification and product description
CN code 540773 covers woven fabrics of polyester yarn, of yarns of different colours, containing less than 85 percent by weight of polyester fibres, mixed mainly or solely with synthetic or artificial materials. These fabrics combine polyester properties with other synthetic or artificial fibres, with the colour pattern created from yarn dyed before weaving. Multi-colour mixed polyester fabrics are used in furniture upholstery, interior decoration, and formal apparel. Classification requires confirmation that polyester is less than 85 percent, the pattern comes from dyed yarn, and the admixture is mainly synthetic or artificial fibres.
EU regulatory requirements
Multi-colour mixed fabrics are subject to REACH regarding dyes used in each yarn colour and each fibre type. Different fibres in the blend may require different dyeing techniques, increasing the number of chemicals to verify. Regulation EU 1007/2011 requires full composition labelling. GPSR imposes product safety requirements. Upholstery fabrics may be subject to additional fire resistance requirements depending on national regulations in the destination country.
Import and trade
The customs declaration under CN code 540773 should include full raw material composition, pattern and colour description, area weight, weave, and width. Customs authorities may verify composition and pattern creation method. Preferential rates are available under FTA agreements with double transformation origin rules. High-quality yarn-dyed fabrics are mainly imported from European countries and Turkey.
Yarn-dyed multi-coloured polyester fabrics CN 5407 73
CN code 5407 73 classifies multi-coloured (yarn-dyed) woven fabrics of polyester yarn containing less than 85% polyester mixed with cotton. Yarn-dyed fabrics are woven from threads pre-dyed in different colours, distinguishing them from piece-dyed or printed varieties. This production method creates durable patterns such as checks and stripes. When importing, correctly identifying the dyeing technique is crucial as it determines the nomenclature position.
Frequently asked questions
How to label multi-colour mixed fabrics?
The label must contain raw material composition with the percentage share of each fibre in descending order. For example: polyester 60 percent, viscose 40 percent. The fibre name must correspond to the official name in Annex I of Regulation EU 1007/2011.
Do yarn-dyed fabrics require more REACH testing?
Yes, multiple colours require testing of each yarn colour for restricted substances. Additionally, different fibres in the blend may require different dyeing methods, increasing the risk of different chemical substances requiring REACH verification.
What origin rules apply to multi-colour mixed fabrics?
Origin rules under EU FTA agreements require double transformation: each yarn must be produced, dyed, and woven in the preference country. For mixed fabrics, the double transformation requirement applies to each fibre component.
How to distinguish CN 5407 73 from printed fabrics CN 5407 74?
CN 5407 73 fabrics are woven from pre-dyed yarn (pattern visible on both sides), while CN 5407 74 are printed fabrics (pattern clearer on one side). This distinction affects customs classification and the applicable duty rate.
