Chapter 57: Carpets and other textile floor coverings
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 570220 when importing or exporting woven carpets and other textile floor coverings made from coconut fibers, commonly known as coir. An example would be a shipment of hand-woven coir rugs used in home decor.
This code specifically covers woven carpets that are not tufted or flocked, distinguishing them from other types of textile floor coverings. For instance, if you're dealing with a coir mat that is flat woven, this is the correct classification.
In contrast, HS-6 570221 includes carpets made from other natural fibers like wool or cotton, which are not made from coir. If your product is a tufted rug or made from synthetic materials, you would need to look at different HS codes.
Understanding the specifics of HS-6 570220 helps ensure compliance with import regulations. If you’re unsure whether your product qualifies, consider factors like the material composition and the method of weaving.
