HS-4 · Heading

5906Textile fabrics, rubberised; other than those of heading no. 5902

Chapter 59: Impregnated, coated textiles

Plain-language overview

Use HS-4 5906 when importing rubberized textile fabrics, such as a roll of rubberized canvas used for tarpaulins or industrial covers. This heading specifically excludes fabrics classified under heading 5902.

When determining the correct HS-6 line, consider the width of the adhesive tape. If your product is a rubberized adhesive tape that is 20 cm wide or less, classify it under HS-6 590610. For wider tapes, you will need to look elsewhere.

If your rubberized fabric is knitted or crocheted, it falls under HS-6 590691. However, if it is not knitted or crocheted, you should use HS-6 590699. This distinction is crucial for correct tariff classification.
