Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "56" represent waste and scrap of fibers or textile materials, including old clothes, old canvas, old ropes, old nets, etc., and products made from such waste.

Specifically, this classification includes the following:

• Waste textile materials: This includes waste, scraps, and offcuts of various natural fibers (such as cotton, hemp, silk, wool, etc.) and chemical fibers.
• Used clothing: Various worn and no longer usable clothes, bedding, curtains, etc.
• Used textile products: For example, old canvas, old ropes, old nets, old tarpaulins, etc.
• Recycled fibers: Fibers recovered from discarded textiles, such as recycled cotton, recycled hemp, etc.

Reason for classification:

These items share the common feature of being discarded or no longer suitable for use in the textile industry, and are mainly used for recycling or as raw materials for processing. Therefore, customs classify them under Chapter 56 to facilitate unified management and statistical analysis of such textile waste.

In summary, the HS code "56" represents waste and recyclable resources in the textile industry.
