Classification and features

CN code 580890 covers braids in the piece, ornamental trimmings in the piece without embroidery other than knitted or crocheted, tassels, pompons and similar articles. These are decorative textile articles including curtain tassels, pompons, passementerie appliques, borders, decorative bindings and other finishing elements used for embellishing clothing, furniture, curtains, cushions and other textiles.

Textile regulations

Ornamental braids are subject to Textile Regulation (EU) No 1007/2011 for composition labelling. Chemical substances are subject to REACH. Decorative elements for children's clothing are subject to additional safety requirements for small, sharp or easily detachable parts. EN 14682 regulates cord and drawstring length and placement. Tassels and pompons must be securely attached to prevent strangulation risk.

Trade and import

Importing ornamental braids requires customs documentation. Major suppliers are China, India and Turkey. Transport in boxes on pallets. Quality control covers workmanship, colour fastness and attachment security.

Special braids and ornamental trimmings fabrics CN 5808 90 in trade

CN code 580890 covers braids and ornamental trimmings classified in Chapter 58 of the Combined Nomenclature. These special fabrics are manufactured using advanced weaving technology, distinguishing them from standard fabrics in Chapters 50-55. When importing into the EU, correctly identifying the production technique (pile, chenille, lace) is key as it determines tariff classification and the duty rate. Importers must also ensure dye and finish REACH compliance.
