ANNEX Description of the goods Classification (CN code) Reasons (1) (2) (3) A soft reversible textile article in the form of a basket, measuring approximately 35 cm Γ— 25 cm, with stuffed edges (height 10 cm) and a stuffed bottom. One of the outer sides of the article is made of woven fabric (100 % polyester), the other side is made of knitted plush fabric (100 % polyester). The article is for use by small pets. (see photographs A and B) Β ( *1 ) 6307Β 90Β 98 Classification is determined by general rules 1, 3(c) and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature (GIR) and the wording of CN codes 6307 , 6307Β 90 and 6307Β 90Β 98 . Given its objective characteristics, the article is a textile basket designed to give comfort to small pets. Classification as furniture under heading 9403 is excluded because that heading covers products of a different nature which are used for private dwellings, hotels, offices, schools, churches, shops, laboratories, etc. (see also the Harmonized System Explanatory Notes (HSEN) to heading 9403 of theΒ HS). Classification under heading 9404 is also excluded as textile baskets are not similar to articles of bedding and similar furnishing. Moreover, the article has no additional elements pointing to its use as a bedding article. The article is considered a made-up textile article within the meaning of heading 6307 . The interior and exterior are equally essential to the article, due to the fact that it can be turned inside out and used either way. As it cannot be established whether the knitted plush fabric (leading to a classification under CN code 6307Β 90Β 10 ) or the woven fabric (leading to a classification under CN code 6307Β 90Β 98 ) gives the article its essential character within the meaning of GIR 3(b), the article has to be classified under the heading which occurs last in numerical order among those which equally merit consideration. The article is therefore to be classified under CN code 6307Β 90Β 98 . A B ( *1 ) Β Β The photograph is purely for information.
