HS code for Wool throw: 6301.20
Blankets (other than electric blankets) and travelling rugs, of wool or of fine animal hair.
Classification of wool throw under HS 6301.20
A wool throw is classified under HS code 6301.20, which covers blankets and traveling rugs of wool or fine animal hair. Chapter 63 includes "made up" textile articles, meaning items that have been finished into a specific product rather than remaining as fabric in the roll. Heading 6301 specifically addresses blankets, which are defined as articles usually used on beds or as wraps to provide warmth. For a throw to be classified here, it must be composed of wool or fine animal hair. The term "traveling rugs" in this context refers to heavy blankets used for warmth while traveling or sitting, which aligns with the common usage of a decorative or functional throw. The classification remains here regardless of whether the edges are hemmed, fringed, or otherwise finished, provided the item is clearly intended for use as a blanket or rug. This code excludes electric blankets, which have their own specific subheading within the same heading.

Codes often confused with 6301.20
Common mistake. A common misclassification is 5111.11, which is for wool fabric in the piece (on a roll), not yet "made up" into a finished throw. Another error is 6304.91, which covers other furnishing articles; however, 6301 is more specific for blankets and throws. If the throw is made of synthetic fleece that mimics wool, it must be classified under 6301.40. Electric blankets are strictly excluded from 6301.20 and must be classified under 6301.10.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. 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).
