HS Code for Crocheted curtains
Crocheted curtains are classified under HS code 6303.19. This classification is situated within Chapter 63, which encompasses made-up textile articles. Heading 6303 is dedicated to "Curtains (including drapes) and interior blinds; curtain or bed valances." The system further divides these items by their construction method. Subheading 6303.19 specifically covers curtains that are knitted or crocheted and made of textile materials other than synthetic fibers. If the curtains were made of synthetic fibers, they would be classified under 6303.12. The classification process requires identifying the primary function of the item—providing privacy, light control, or decoration at a window—and confirming the crocheted construction. Crocheting involves creating fabric by interlocking loops of yarn, thread, or strands of other materials using a crochet hook, which distinguishes these items from woven or non-woven textile products.

Common Misclassification
The most common misclassification occurs between 6303.19 and 6303.12. Code 6303.12 is strictly for curtains made of synthetic fibers (like polyester). Importers often fail to verify the fiber content, leading to incorrect filings. Additionally, crocheted curtains are sometimes confused with 6303.91 or 6303.92, which are for curtains that are NOT knitted or crocheted (typically woven). Another error involves Heading 5804, which covers Tulles and other net fabrics; however, once these fabrics are made up into finished curtains, Heading 6303 takes precedence.
