Heading 6004 — Fabrics; knitted or crocheted fabrics of a width exceeding 30 cm, other than those of heading 60.01, containing by weight 5% or more of elastomeric yarn or rubber thread
Chapter 60: Knitted or crocheted fabrics
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 600410 when importing or exporting knitted or crocheted fabrics wider than 30 cm that contain at least 5% elastomeric yarn but no rubber thread. For example, a shipment of stretchy polyester-spandex fabric for activewear would fall under this code.
This code is distinct from HS-6 600420, which covers similar fabrics but specifically includes those made with rubber thread. If your fabric contains rubber, you need to classify it under that code instead.
Fabrics classified under this code are often used in garments, upholstery, and other applications where stretchability is key. Look for products like leggings, fitted sheets, or stretchable decorative fabrics that meet the criteria.
When determining the correct classification, ensure that the fabric's composition is accurately documented, especially the percentage of elastomeric yarn. This will help avoid potential customs issues.
