Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "56" represent fiber products, cotton linters, waste cotton, yarn, and textile goods.

Specifically, this category includes the following:

• Cotton linters, waste cotton: Includes various cotton linters, waste cotton, cotton residue, etc.
• Yarn: Includes various textile yarns, such as cotton yarn, hemp yarn, silk yarn, synthetic fiber yarn, etc.
• Textile goods: Includes various textiles produced by weaving, knitting, crocheting, etc., such as cotton fabric, hemp fabric, silk fabric, synthetic fiber fabric, non-woven fabric, etc.

Reason for classification:

This category is classified based on the type of raw material (fiber) and the form of the product. The main focus is on what kind of fiber the product is made of, and what the final form of the product is—whether it is cotton linters, yarn, or textile goods.

In short, if the product is a fiber product, cotton linters, waste cotton, yarn, or textile goods, then its HS code is likely to start with "56".

To more accurately determine the HS code, it is also necessary to understand more specific information about the product's composition, use, structure, etc.
