HS Code for Rayon knit trim

Rayon knit trim is classified under HS code 6003.40. This classification is part of Chapter 60, which encompasses all knitted or crocheted fabrics. Heading 6003 is specifically reserved for knitted or crocheted fabrics of a width not exceeding 30 cm, other than those of heading 60.01 (pile fabrics) or 60.02 (fabrics with high elastomeric content). The subheading 6003.40 is designated for these narrow fabrics when they are made of artificial fibers, such as rayon or viscose. The classification is strictly dependent on the width of the material; if the trim exceeds 30 cm, it would likely fall under heading 60.06. Additionally, the construction must be knitted or crocheted. If the trim is woven, it would be classified in Chapter 58. This code is essential for identifying decorative trims, galloons, and narrow lace-like structures produced on knitting machines.

Common Misclassification

Furthermore, if the trim is made of synthetic fibers like polyester instead of artificial fibers like rayon, it must be classified under 6003.30.
