Classification of jumbo bags under HS 6305.32
Jumbo bags, also known as Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers (FIBCs), are classified under HS code 6305.32. Heading 6305 covers sacks and bags of a kind used for the packing of goods. Subheading 6305.32 is specific to those made of man-made textile materials that are designed as flexible intermediate bulk containers. These bags are typically constructed from woven polypropylene or polyethylene fabrics and are designed to hold large quantities of bulk material, such as chemicals, minerals, or food products, often ranging from 500 kg to 2,000 kg. The classification is determined by the material (man-made textile) and the specific design feature of being an "intermediate bulk container," which usually includes lifting loops or straps for handling by forklifts or cranes. This distinguishes them from smaller consumer-grade sacks or bags.

Codes often confused with 6305.32
Common mistake. Jumbo bags are sometimes misclassified under HS code 3923.21 or 3923.29, which cover sacks and bags made of plastics. However, because FIBCs are made from woven textile strips (even if the strips are plastic), they are considered textile articles of Chapter 63 rather than plastic articles of Chapter 39. Another error is using 6305.33, which covers other bags made of polyethylene or polypropylene strips; however, 6305.32 is the more specific code for the "flexible intermediate bulk container" design and must be used when the bag meets that definition.

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).
