Chapter 57: Carpets and other textile floor coverings

Plain-language overview

Use HS-4 5702 when importing or exporting woven carpets and textile floor coverings, such as hand-woven rugs or mats. For example, a shipment of a traditional Persian rug would fall under this classification.

When selecting the correct HS-6 code, consider whether your product is made from wool, man-made fibers, or other materials. For instance, 570231 is for woven carpets of wool or fine animal hair that are not made up, while 570242 is for similar products made from man-made fibers.

If your carpet is made of coconut fibers, you should use 570220. However, if it features a pile construction and is made from materials other than wool or man-made fibers, you would look at 570239. This distinction is crucial for accurate tariff classification.
