HS code for Faux fur fabric: 6001.10
Fabrics, long pile fabrics, knitted or crocheted.
Classification of faux fur fabric under HS 6001.10
Faux fur fabric is classified under HS code 600110 because it is technically defined as a long pile fabric produced through knitting or crocheting processes. Unlike woven imitation furs, which may fall under different headings, the 600110 classification specifically addresses the construction method where a pile is inserted into a knitted base. This material is designed to simulate the appearance and warmth of natural animal fur using synthetic fibers like acrylic, modacrylic, or polyester. The classification logic relies on the General Rules of Interpretation (GRI), specifically identifying the product by its textile construction (knitted) and its physical characteristic (long pile). Because the pile is integrated during the knitting process rather than being attached to a pre-existing base, it meets the criteria for Chapter 60, which covers knitted or crocheted fabrics. This code is essential for importers to distinguish between raw textile materials and finished articles made from such fabrics.

Codes often confused with 6001.10
Common mistake. Faux fur is frequently misclassified under HS code 430400. While 430400 covers "artificial fur," it is generally reserved for articles made of artificial fur or fabrics where the fur is attached by sewing or gumming to a base, rather than being knitted into it. Additionally, some importers mistakenly use 600192, which is for other pile fabrics of man-made fibers; however, 600110 is the more specific subheading for "long pile" varieties. Distinguishing between a standard pile and a "long pile" is critical for correct duty application.

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).
