Chapter 56: Wadding, felt and nonwovens
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 560129 when importing or exporting wadding made from textile materials, such as synthetic fibers or natural fibers other than cotton. For example, if you are shipping a batch of polyester wadding used for insulation in jackets, this is the correct code.
This code specifically covers wadding and articles made from textile materials that are not cotton or man-made fibers. In contrast, HS-6 560121 applies to wadding made from cotton, so it's important to distinguish between the two when classifying your goods.
When dealing with wadding for use in various applications like padding, stuffing, or insulation, ensure you check the fiber content. If your product contains only natural fibers like wool or silk, it may not fall under this HS-6 line.
If you're unsure about the classification, consider the end use of the product. For example, wadding used in upholstery or bedding typically falls under this code, while wadding made from cotton would require a different classification.
