HS code for Umbrella frames: 6603.20

Umbrella frames, including frames mounted on shafts (sticks).

Classification of umbrella frames under HS 6603.20

Umbrella frames are classified under HS code 6603.20 because they represent a specific component part of umbrellas, sun umbrellas, or walking-stick umbrellas. Chapter 66 of the Harmonized System covers umbrellas, sun umbrellas, walking-sticks, seat-sticks, whips, riding-crops, and parts thereof. Heading 6603 is dedicated to the parts, trimmings, and accessories of the articles found in headings 6601 (umbrellas) or 6602 (walking sticks). Within this heading, 6603.20 is the specific subheading for umbrella frames, including those already mounted on shafts or sticks. This classification is essential for manufacturers and importers who ship components for assembly rather than finished consumer goods. The classification remains consistent whether the frame is made of steel, aluminum, or fiberglass, as the material composition does not override the specific functional description provided in the subheading. The frame is considered the structural skeleton of the umbrella, consisting of the ribs and stretchers, and its classification here is mandated by the specific mention of frames in the HS nomenclature.

Codes often confused with 6603.20

Common mistake. Umbrella frames are often misclassified under 6601.10 or 6601.91, which are codes for finished umbrellas. If the frame is imported with the fabric canopy attached, it must be classified as a complete umbrella. Another common error is using 7326.90 for general steel articles; however, because 6603.20 specifically describes umbrella frames, it must be used according to the principle of specificity in GRI 3(a). Parts of frames, like individual ribs, are also sometimes confused with 6603.90.

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).
