Description of the goods	Classification(CN code)	Reasons
(1)	(2)	(3)
A cuboid textile article (so-called "mattress cover") made of printed woven textile fabrics of man-made fibres (100 % polyester) which is a washable fabric, of a measurement of approximately 200 × 60 × 8 cm.The article has a zip closure along one of the long sides to enable a mattress to be inserted.On one of the long sides a textile handle is attached.See image.	63022290	Classification is determined by general rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 6302, 630222 and 63022290.The article is made of washable material and has a zip closure enabling the removal of the article from the mattress at any time, and is thus suitable for laundering (see also Harmonised System Explanatory Notes (HSEN) to heading 6302, first paragraph). Consequently, it has the objective characteristics and properties of bedlinen.The article is therefore to be classified under CN code 63022290 as "bedlinen, other than knitted or crocheted, of man-made fibres".
