Chapter 57: Carpets and other textile floor coverings
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 570310 when importing or exporting tufted carpets made of wool or fine animal hair. For example, a shipment of a wool carpet measuring 2 meters by 3 meters would fall under this code.
This code specifically covers tufted carpets, which are created by inserting yarn into a backing material. It differs from HS-6 570320, which includes carpets made from synthetic fibers, so ensure you classify your product correctly based on the material.
When dealing with fine animal hair, such as cashmere or alpaca, this HS-6 line applies as long as the product is tufted. Non-tufted wool carpets, on the other hand, would be classified differently.
If you're unsure whether your carpet qualifies under this code, consider the manufacturing process and the materials used. Tufted carpets made from wool or fine animal hair are distinct in texture and appearance compared to other types.
