5805 — Tapestries; hand-woven, (Gobelins, Flanders, Aubusson, Beauvais and the like) and needle-worked tapestries (e.g. petit point, cross-stitch) whether or not made up
Chapter 58: Special woven fabrics
Plain-language overview
Use HS-4 5805 when importing hand-woven tapestries like Gobelins or needle-worked items such as cross-stitch. For example, a shipment of a hand-woven Aubusson tapestry would fall under this code.
The distinction within this heading is straightforward, as all items classified under 5805 share similar characteristics. However, ensure that your product is indeed hand-woven or needle-worked, as this is a requirement for classification.
If you're considering items that might resemble tapestries but are not hand-woven or needle-worked, you may need to look at other headings. For instance, machine-made textiles would not qualify under HS-4 5805.
