Classification of coat hooks under HS 8302.50
Coat hooks made of base metal are classified under HS code 8302.50. This heading covers a variety of base metal mountings, fittings, and similar articles suitable for furniture, doors, staircases, windows, blinds, coachwork, saddlery, trunks, chests, caskets, or the like. Subheading 8302.50 specifically identifies hat-racks, hat-pegs, brackets, and similar fixtures. Coat hooks fall under \"similar fixtures\" or \"hat-pegs\" depending on their design. To be classified here, the item must be made of base metal (such as iron, steel, copper, or aluminum). If the hook is integrated into a larger piece of furniture, such as a wooden wardrobe, it may be classified as part of the furniture under Chapter 94. However, individual hooks intended for wall mounting or attachment to other surfaces remain in 8302.50. This classification is based on the material composition and the specific utility of the item as a mounting fixture.

Codes often confused with 8302.50
Common mistake. Coat hooks are frequently misclassified under 7326, which is a residual category for other articles of iron or steel. However, because 8302.50 specifically describes hat-pegs and similar fixtures, it takes precedence according to GRI 3(a). Another common misclassification occurs with plastic hooks, which must be classified under 3926.90. If the hook is part of a coat stand (furniture), it should be classified under 9403.

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).
