HS code 6304.20 is the 6-digit subheading for furnishing articles, excluding those of heading no. 9404, bed nets, specified in Subheading Note 1 to this Chapter. It is used for tablecloths, placemats, textile wall hangings, decorative throws (not bedspreads) and cushion covers.
What HS 6304.20 covers
This HS code covers a specific category of furnishing articles, primarily focusing on textile products used for interior decoration, excluding items like mattresses, quilts, or bed nets. These goods are integral to the home decor and hospitality industries, reflecting aesthetic trends and functional needs. Importers typically include retailers, interior design firms, and hotel suppliers in countries with strong consumer markets and tourism sectors, such as the United States, Germany, and the UK. Exporting nations often possess robust textile manufacturing bases, like China, India, and Turkey, leveraging their production efficiencies and design capabilities. Key aspects of trade involve material composition (e.g., cotton, linen, synthetics), design complexity, and adherence to safety and flammability standards. The market is dynamic, influenced by seasonal collections, evolving interior design styles, and the growing demand for sustainable and ethically produced textiles. Businesses must navigate diverse consumer preferences and regulatory landscapes to succeed in this global segment.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. 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).
