Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 630293 when importing or exporting toilet and kitchen linen made from man-made fibers, such as polyester or nylon. For example, a shipment of polyester dish towels would fall under this code.

This HS-6 line specifically covers items like kitchen towels, dishcloths, and napkins that are not made from natural fibers. It’s important to distinguish these from HS-6 630291, which pertains to similar products made from cotton or other natural materials.

When classifying items, consider the fiber content carefully. While HS-6 630293 is for man-made fibers, HS-6 630299 includes other types of toilet and kitchen linens that may not fit neatly into the previous categories.

Understanding the distinctions between these codes helps ensure compliance with customs regulations and avoids potential delays or penalties during the import/export process.
