Classification of crocheted table linen under HS 6302.40
Crocheted table linen is classified under HS code 6302.40. Heading 6302 covers "Bed linen, table linen, toilet linen and kitchen linen." The subheading 6302.40 is specifically reserved for table linen that has been produced through knitting or crocheting. This includes items like tablecloths, table runners, and napkins. The classification is straightforward under GRI 1, as the product name and construction method are explicitly mentioned in the subheading text. Table linen is defined as textile articles used on the table during the service of meals, typically to protect the table surface or for decorative and sanitary purposes. The crocheted nature of these items, characterized by their looped stitch construction, distinguishes them from woven table linen, which is classified under different subheadings (6302.51 through 6302.59) based on the fiber content.

Codes often confused with 6302.40
Common mistake. A frequent misclassification occurs with 6304.91, which covers general furnishing articles. While both codes include crocheted items, 6302.40 is more specific for items used during meal service (table linen). Another common error is 6302.51, which is for woven cotton table linen; importers must distinguish between the "over-under" structure of weaving and the "looped" structure of crocheting. Additionally, small crocheted doilies might be classified as 6304.91 if they are intended for furniture tops (like dressers) rather than dining tables.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. 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).
