HS Code for Coverlets

Coverlets, which are decorative bedspreads used as the topmost layer of bedding, are classified under HS code 630419. This classification falls within Chapter 63, which covers other made-up textile articles, sets, and worn clothing. Specifically, heading 6304 pertains to furnishing articles, excluding those of heading 9404. Subheading 630419 is designated for bedspreads that are not knitted or crocheted. The classification is determined by the material construction and the intended use of the product. Coverlets in this category are typically woven, non-woven, or made from lace or embroidery. They are distinguished from other bedding by their lack of internal stuffing or padding; they are essentially a single or multi-layered textile sheet designed to cover the bed for aesthetic and light thermal purposes. Under GRI 1 and 6, the product is classified here because it is a finished textile furnishing article that does not meet the specific criteria for bedding with internal support or heavy filling found in Chapter 94.

Products Included

• Woven decorative bedspreads
• Jacquard coverlets
• Lace bed covers
• Embroidered textile bed throws
• Non-knitted bed runners
• Quilted coverlets that lack significant loft or heavy padding

Common Misclassification

Coverlets are most commonly misclassified under HS code 940490, which covers articles of bedding such as quilts, eiderdowns, and duvets. The distinction lies in the presence of filling; if the article is stuffed with feathers, down, synthetic fibers, or wool to provide significant insulation, it belongs in 9404. Another common error is using 630411, which is reserved specifically for knitted or crocheted bedspreads. Importers must verify the construction method (woven vs. knitted) to choose between 630419 and 630411.
