HS Code for Fake flowers
Fake flowers made of plastic are classified under HS code 6702.10. Chapter 67 of the Harmonized System covers artificial flowers, foliage, and fruit. Heading 6702 specifically addresses these items and their parts, as well as articles made from them. The subheading 6702.10 is designated for products made of plastics. Classification is based on the manufacturing process, which usually involves molding, stamping, or assembly by binding, glueing, or similar methods. To be classified here, the product must resemble a natural plant part in its finished state. The Harmonized System uses material-specific subheadings to differentiate between plastic (6702.10) and other materials like silk or paper (6702.90). This ensures that the duty rates and trade statistics accurately reflect the chemical and industrial origin of the goods.

Common Misclassification
Fake flowers are frequently misclassified under 3926.90, which is a general category for other articles of plastics. However, because heading 6702 is more specific to artificial flora, it takes precedence according to GRI 3(a). Another common error is using 6702.90 for plastic flowers; 6702.90 is only for flowers made of materials other than plastic, such as fabric, silk, or dried plants that have been heavily processed.
