Classification of dyed jute fabric under HS 5310.90
Dyed jute fabric is classified under HS code 5310.90. Heading 5310 covers woven fabrics of jute or of other textile bast fibers of heading 5303. The heading is split into two subheadings: 5310.10 for unbleached fabrics and 5310.90 for "other" fabrics. The "other" category includes jute fabrics that have been bleached, dyed, or printed. Classification is determined by GRI 1 and 6. Jute is a bast fiber, and the fabric must be woven to fall under this heading. The dyeing process, which occurs after the fabric is woven or by using dyed yarns, moves the product from the 5310.10 category to 5310.90. This classification applies to a wide range of weights and weaves, from lightweight decorative fabrics to heavy-duty industrial dyed hessian, provided the primary material is jute.

Codes often confused with 5310.90
Common mistake. The most common error is classifying dyed jute under 5310.10, which is strictly for unbleached (grey) fabric. Another frequent mistake is using HS code 6305.10, which is for sacks and bags used for the packing of goods; if the fabric is in rolls and not yet converted into bags, it must stay in 5310. Additionally, fabrics made of synthetic fibers that look like jute are classified in Chapter 54 or 55, and raw jute fibers are classified in 5303.

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).
