What HS 6302.40 covers
This category specifically covers table linen items that are produced using knitting or crocheting techniques, regardless of the fiber content. These items often possess a distinct texture, elasticity, and drape compared to woven linens, making them popular for decorative purposes, special occasions, or a more casual aesthetic in home and hospitality settings. International trade in knitted or crocheted table linen can involve artisanal products from smaller workshops, often reflecting traditional crafts, or mass-produced items from specialized textile factories. Importers often include home goods stores, gift shops, and hospitality suppliers seeking unique textures and designs. Exporters are typically countries with strong textile craft traditions or efficient manufacturing capabilities for these specific techniques. Key considerations include the intricacy of the pattern, material blend, and durability for repeated use.

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).
