Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "54" represent fibers and fiber products.

Specifically, this chapter includes:

• Natural fibers: such as cotton, wool, silk, hemp, etc.
• Man-made fibers: such as rayon, polyester, polypropylene, etc.
• Fiber yarns and fabrics: including various types of yarns, cotton fabric, silk, woolen fabrics, etc.
• Other fiber products: such as non-woven fabrics, fiber ropes, fiber bags, etc.

Reason for classification:

The HS code system classifies items based on their nature and use. The "54" chapter groups all fiber-related products together because they share a common raw material base—fibers—and play an important role in the textile industry.

In short, if the product you want to classify is cotton, wool, silk, or fabrics and yarns made from these fibers, it likely falls under the HS code "54" chapter.

The first four digits of the HS code: 5405

Classification description: Man-made monofilament fibers with a fineness of 67 denier or more and any cross-sectional dimension not exceeding 1 millimeter; strips of man-made textile materials, etc., with an apparent width not exceeding 5 millimeters.

Specific explanation: This code includes the following:

• Man-made monofilament fibers with a fineness of 67 denier or more.
• Man-made monofilament fibers where any cross-sectional dimension does not exceed 1 millimeter.
• Strips of man-made textile materials, such as artificial straw.
• Strips of man-made textile materials, etc., with an apparent width not exceeding 5 millimeters.

The six-digit HS code: 5405.00

Classification: Man-made single fibers with a diameter of 67 decitex or more and any cross-sectional dimension not exceeding 1 mm; strips of man-made textile materials, etc., with an apparent width not exceeding 5 mm.

Meaning: Refers to man-made single fibers with a diameter of 67 decitex or more and any cross-sectional dimension not exceeding 1 mm, as well as strips of man-made textile materials, etc., with an apparent width not exceeding 5 mm.

The 8-10 digit HS code: 5405006000

Classification: Man-made single fibers, with a diameter of 67 decitex or more and any cross-sectional dimension not exceeding 1 millimeter; strips of man-made textile materials (e.g., artificial straw), etc. — Other.

Explanation: This HS code corresponds to man-made single fibers with a diameter of 67 decitex or more and any cross-sectional dimension not exceeding 1 millimeter; strips of man-made textile materials (e.g., artificial straw), etc., classified under the "Other" category.

Examples of products: - Artificial straw used for decorative purposes - Monofilament fibers used in industrial applications - Textile strips with a width less than 5 mm - Synthetic fiber strips used in crafts or DIY projects
