Heading 5905 — Textile wall coverings
Chapter 59: Impregnated, coated textiles
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 590500 when importing or exporting textile wall coverings made from fabrics that are impregnated, coated, covered, or laminated. For example, if you're shipping rolls of vinyl-coated fabric used for wall coverings in commercial spaces, this is the correct code.
This code specifically covers textile wall coverings, which are distinct from other textile products that may not have the same protective or decorative coatings. For instance, HS-6 590510 refers to non-woven wall coverings, which do not fall under this category.
Textile wall coverings classified under this code are often used in both residential and commercial applications, providing aesthetic appeal and durability. They can include materials like PVC-coated fabrics or other synthetic textiles designed for wall applications.
When considering imports, be aware of the specific properties of the wall coverings, such as their thickness, coating materials, and intended use, as these factors can influence compliance and classification.
