HS Code for Textile household items
HS code 6307.90 is a broad, residual category within the Harmonized System that covers 'made up' textile articles not specified or included more specifically in other headings of Chapter 63 or elsewhere in the nomenclature. 'Made up' refers to items that have been cut to shape, sewn, or otherwise finished into a final product, rather than being simple rolls of fabric. This code is essential for miscellaneous household and technical textile goods. Because it is a residual code, it is only used after confirming that the item does not fit into specific categories like bed linen (6302), curtains (6303), or sacks for packing (6305). The classification depends on the finished nature of the product and its textile composition, regardless of whether the fabric is woven, knitted, or non-woven.
Products Included
- Textile face masks (surgical or dust masks)
- National flags and banners
- Textile shoe laces with aglets
- Padded textile ironing board covers
- Laundry bags made of mesh textile
- Textile floor cloths and dishcloths (not knitted)
Common Misclassification
Items are often misclassified under 6307.90 when a more specific heading exists. For example, cleaning cloths that are knitted or crocheted should be under 6117.80 or 5923. Hand-made tapestries belong in 5805.00. Confusion also arises with 6304.92 for furnishing articles, which takes precedence for decorative household items made of cotton.
