What HS 5702.49 covers

This HS code applies to "made up" (finished) woven carpets and textile floor coverings with a pile construction, crafted from textile materials other than man-made fibers, wool, or fine animal hair. This typically includes finished rugs made from natural plant fibers such as cotton, jute, sisal, or coir. These products are sought after for their natural aesthetics, texture, and often eco-friendly appeal. Importers include specialty home goods stores, eco-conscious retailers, and interior designers. Exporters are often countries with abundant natural fiber resources and traditional weaving expertise. Important trade considerations include the fiber's sustainability, weave pattern, natural color variations, and any certifications related to organic or fair-trade production. The market for these goods often caters to consumers looking for rustic, bohemian, or minimalist design elements.

How these figures are built

109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
