TN VED EAEU For importers, declarants and representatives

Typical scenario

A coated glove was called plastic without examining its base

A continuous outer coating can conceal a knitted construction in a protective glove’s trade description. Examine the finished article’s base, coating and material roles without inferring its chapter solely from the palm’s appearance.

What needs to be clarified

Examine construction and material bonding, identifying knit-base and coating features needed to review classification under the applicable notes and the goods’ presented condition.

Materials to prepare

  • Marked batch gloves of the specified product with sampling record
  • Manufacturing description of knitting, coating and material composition
  • Shipment specification, packaging labels and inner-surface photographs

What to compare

Compare inner/outer surfaces, loops, seams and coating boundaries. Check continuity, cellular structure and polymer placement, assessing the textile’s structural role. Agree localized sectioning if necessary; describe palm, fingers and cuff separately rather than generalizing one area to the whole glove.

Possible outcome of the analysis

A technical description and construction photo table may support review of applicable notes; the classification approach depends on verified roles of base and coating in the finished glove.

Limits of the conclusions

An outer coating alone determines no code. Examination replaces no customs decision and guarantees no acceptance; check the nomenclature edition for the declaration date.
