Umbrellas and sun umbrellas, n.e.c. in heading no. 6601 (including walking stick umbrellas).

Classification of stick umbrellas under HS 6601.99

Stick umbrellas are classified under HS code 6601.99. This classification is determined by Chapter 66, which encompasses umbrellas, sun umbrellas, walking-sticks, seat-sticks, whips, riding-crops, and parts thereof. Heading 6601 specifically covers umbrellas and sun umbrellas. Within this heading, the system differentiates between garden umbrellas (6601.10) and other types. Subheading 6601.91 is reserved for telescopic (collapsible) umbrellas. Therefore, non-telescopic umbrellas, commonly referred to as stick umbrellas or long-handle umbrellas, fall into the residual category of 6601.99. This code applies to umbrellas with a rigid, non-collapsible central shaft, regardless of the material used for the canopy or the handle.

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).
