It is characterized by a waffle-like appearance created by a complex knitting scheme. Weighing 185g/m2, this fabric will be imported in 154 centimeter widths.

The applicable subheading for the weft knit fabric will be 6006.21.9080, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other knitted or crocheted fabrics, of cotton, unbleached or bleached, other, other. The rate of duty will be 10.8 percent ad valorem.

At the present time goods classifiable in 6006.21.9080, HTS, and produced in Pakistan are not subject to either quota restraints or visa requirements.
