HS-4 · Heading
6005 — Fabrics; warp knit (including those made on galloon knitting machines), other than those of headings 60.01 to 60.04
Chapter 60: Knitted or crocheted fabrics
Plain-language overview
Use HS-4 6005 when importing warp knit fabrics made on galloon knitting machines, such as a shipment of unbleached cotton fabric for clothing. This heading covers various types of warp knit fabrics that are not classified under headings 60.01 to 60.04.
When deciding among the HS-6 subheadings, consider the fiber content and treatment of the fabric. For example, if your fabric is dyed cotton, you would use HS-6 600522. If it’s unbleached, then HS-6 600521 is appropriate. Each subheading specifies the color and treatment of the fabric, which is crucial for accurate classification.
If your shipment includes synthetic fibers, you’ll need to differentiate further. For instance, HS-6 600537 applies to dyed synthetic fabrics, while HS-6 600536 covers bleached or unbleached synthetic fabrics. Understanding these distinctions will help you select the correct code and avoid potential customs issues.
