Chapter 53: Vegetable fibres

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 530919 when importing or exporting woven fabrics made primarily of flax, specifically those containing 85% or more flax. For instance, a shipment of linen tablecloths made from such fabric would fall under this code.

This code is distinct from HS-6 530920, which covers similar flax fabrics that are bleached or unbleached. If your product is a natural-colored linen fabric with the required flax content, you would classify it under 530919 instead.

Woven fabrics under this code are typically used in apparel, home textiles, and industrial applications. Common examples include linen shirts, curtains, and upholstery fabrics that emphasize the natural texture and durability of flax.

When classifying your product, ensure it meets the 85% flax content requirement. If your fabric contains less flax or is blended with other fibers, you may need to consider different HS codes.
