Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "60" represent knitted or crocheted fabrics.

Specifically, this chapter includes the following:

• Knitted or crocheted fabrics, including:
  • Fabrics made from various fibers such as cotton, synthetic fibers, etc.
  • Knitted or crocheted fabrics of various structures (e.g., single jersey, double jersey, jacquard, etc.)
  • Knitted or crocheted fabrics for various purposes (e.g., clothing, home textiles, industrial textiles, etc.)

Reason for classification:

The classification under the "60" chapter is based on manufacturing process, i.e., the product is produced using knitting or crocheting techniques. Regardless of its composition, use, or structure, if it is a knitted or crocheted fabric, it falls within the scope of this chapter.

In simple terms, if the product is "woven" using needles or hooks, rather than "woven" in the traditional sense, it is likely to fall under the 60 chapter.
