HS code for Flat woven synthetic carpets: 5702.92

Classification of flat woven synthetic carpets under HS 5702.92
Flat woven synthetic carpets are classified under HS code 5702.92 because they meet specific criteria regarding material composition and manufacturing technique. Chapter 57 of the Harmonized System covers all textile floor coverings. Heading 5702 specifically addresses carpets and other textile floor coverings that are woven but not tufted or flocked. The classification further narrows down to subheading 5702.92, which specifies that the material must be man-made (synthetic or artificial) and the construction must not be of \"pile\" construction. This means the surface is flat, created by the interlacing of warp and weft threads without the vertical loops or cut yarns characteristic of velvet or plush carpets. The \"made up\" designation indicates these are finished products, often with hemmed edges or specific dimensions, rather than bulk rolls intended for further processing. To be classified here, the synthetic fibers (such as polypropylene, nylon, or polyester) must predominate by weight over any other textile materials present in the blend.

Codes often confused with 5702.92
Common mistake. These products are frequently confused with HS code 5703.20 or 5703.30, which cover tufted carpets made of synthetic materials. The primary difference is the construction; tufted carpets have yarns inserted into a pre-existing backing, whereas 5702.92 products are woven in a single process. Additionally, they may be confused with 5702.32, which covers woven synthetic carpets that *do* have a pile construction. If the carpet is made of natural fibers like jute or coir, it must be moved to 5702.99.

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).
