HS Code 6302.59 – Table linen; of textile materials (other than cotton or man-made fibres), not knitted or crocheted

HS code 6302.59 is the 6-digit subheading for table linen, of textile materials (other than cotton or man-made fibres), not knitted or crocheted. It is used for linen tablecloths, hemp placemats, silk table runners, jute table mats and ramie napkins.

What HS 6302.59 covers

This residual HS code covers woven table linen made from natural fibers other than cotton, such as linen, hemp, jute, or silk, provided they are not knitted or crocheted. These items often cater to premium, eco-conscious, or specialty markets, offering unique textures, drapes, and aesthetic qualities that differentiate them from cotton or synthetic alternatives. For example, linen table linen is highly prized for its natural elegance, durability, and ability to soften with age. Trade volumes are typically lower than for cotton or synthetics but can involve higher unit values, reflecting their niche appeal and often specialized production processes. Importers often include high-end home goods stores, specialty retailers, and sustainable lifestyle brands, while exporters may be countries known for specific fiber cultivation or luxury textile production expertise. Key considerations include fiber origin, ethical sourcing, and the unique properties and care requirements of each material.

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).
