Chapter 58: Special woven fabrics

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 580137 when importing or exporting woven pile fabrics made from man-made fibers. An example would be a shipment of plush polyester upholstery fabric used for furniture.

This code specifically covers warp pile fabrics, distinguishing them from other woven pile fabrics classified under different headings, such as those in HS-6 5802 or HS-6 5806, which include specific textile types like terry cloth or other specialized fabrics.

When considering HS-6 580137, think about products like velour or other similar textiles that are soft and have a raised surface, commonly used in clothing or home décor. If your fabric has a looped or cut pile texture and is made from synthetic fibers, this is likely the right classification.

It's important to differentiate this HS-6 from HS-6 580139, which covers woven pile fabrics of other materials. If your product uses natural fibers instead of man-made ones, you would need to look at that code.
