Classification of coconut fiber rugs under HS 5702.20
Coconut fiber rugs, commonly known as coir rugs, are classified under HS code 5702.20. Chapter 57 covers carpets and other textile floor coverings. Heading 5702 specifically addresses woven carpets and floor coverings that are not tufted or flocked. Within this heading, subheading 5702.20 is a specific provision for floor coverings made of coconut fibers (coir). The classification is determined by the material composition and the method of construction. To fall under this code, the rug must be primarily composed of coir yarn and must be produced through a weaving process. This includes both simple hand-woven mats and more complex machine-woven runners. The presence of a backing, such as latex or PVC, does not necessarily change the classification as long as the essential character of the item is a woven textile floor covering of coir. This follows GRI 1 and 3(b), where the coir fiber provides the essential character of the product. The specificity of 5702.20 ensures that these natural fiber products are distinguished from synthetic or wool woven rugs.

Codes often confused with 5702.20
Common mistake. Coconut fiber rugs are often misclassified under 5703.90, which covers tufted carpets of other textile materials. If the coir fibers are inserted into a pre-existing base (tufted) rather than woven together, 5703 is correct. They are also sometimes confused with 4601.21, which covers mats and plaiting of vegetable materials like bamboo or rattan, but coir is specifically treated as a textile fiber in Chapter 57.

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).
