Classification of coir mats under HS 5702.20
Coir mats are classified under HS code 5702.20, which falls within Chapter 57 of the Harmonized System, dedicated to carpets and other textile floor coverings. Heading 5702 specifically addresses woven textile floor coverings that are not tufted or flocked. The subheading 5702.20 is a specific provision for floor coverings made of coconut fibers, commonly known as coir. The classification is based on the material composition and the method of manufacture. Coir is a coarse fiber extracted from the outer husk of coconuts, and when these fibers are woven into a functional floor covering, they meet the criteria for this specific code. It is important to note that the "made up" status—meaning the mats are finished and ready for use (often with bound edges or specific dimensions)—does not change this classification. Whether the mat is a simple rectangular doormat or a larger runner, as long as it is woven from coir and intended for use as a floor covering, 5702.20 is the appropriate designation. This code is essential for monitoring the trade of natural fiber products and ensuring that environmental and agricultural regulations regarding plant-based materials are followed during international transit.

Codes often confused with 5702.20
Common mistake. Coir mats are often misclassified under 5703, which is reserved for tufted carpets. If the coir fibers are inserted into a pre-existing backing rather than woven together, 5703 is the correct heading. They are also confused with 4601, which covers mats of plaiting materials like straw or rattan; however, because coir is considered a textile fiber in the HS nomenclature, it must remain in Chapter 57. Some rubber-backed mats are also incorrectly placed in 4016, but if the textile coir surface provides the essential character, 5702.20 remains the priority.

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).
