🧶 Felt Bucket (Non-Woven Fabric Containers)
🌐 HS Code Reference & Customs Clearance Guide | 2026 Latest Tariff Analysis | Professional Clearance Strategy
📌 I. Product Definition & Classification: What Exactly is a "Felt Bucket"?
A "Felt Bucket" in international trade refers to a container made from felt (non-woven fabric) or plastic sheets molded into a bucket shape. The classification depends entirely on the material composition:
- Felt Buckets (Textile Origin): Made from natural fibers (wool) or man-made fibers (polyester/nylon) that have been matted and pressed. These fall under Chapter 56 (Non-wovens).
- Plastic Felt-like Buckets: Made from plastic materials (e.g., PE, PP) that mimic the texture or are rigid plastic buckets. These fall under Chapter 39 (Plastics).
⚠️ Critical Distinction:
- If made of non-woven fabric (felt) → Look at HS Code 5602
- If made of plastic (even if textured) → Look at HS Code 3926
📦 II. HS Code Classification Details (2026 Latest Tariff Authority Match)
Based on the provided data, here are the exact classifications and tax rates for Felt/Plastic Buckets:
| HS Code | Product Description | Material Type | Applicable Scenario |
|---|---|---|---|
5602.90.90.00 |
Felt, whether or not impregnated, coated, covered or laminated: Other: Other: Other | Mixed/Natural/Other Fibers | Generic felt buckets not specified by fiber type; wool-based or mixed-material felt. |
5602.90.60.00 |
Felt, whether or not impregnated, coated, covered or laminated: Other: Other: Of man-made fibers | Synthetic (Polyester, Nylon, etc.) | Most common commercial "felt" buckets made from recycled PET or synthetic non-wovens. |
3926.90.10.00 |
Other articles of plastics: Buckets and pails | Plastic (PE, PP, PVC, etc.) | Rigid plastic buckets that may have a fuzzy texture but are fundamentally plastic containers. |
🔍 Key Reminder:
- Do not confuse "Felt" (Chapter 56) with "Plastic" (Chapter 39). Even if a plastic bucket feels soft, if it is molded plastic, it must be declared as 3926.90.10.00.
- Felt Buckets (5602) are generally considered textile/non-woven goods.
- Plastic Buckets (3926) are rigid or semi-rigid plastic goods.

🛠️ IV. Customs Clearance Practical Advice (Real-World Pitfall Guide)
✅ 1. Required Documentation Checklist (Must-Haves)
| Document | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ✅ Product Specification Sheet | ✔️ | Clearly state: Material (Felt vs. Plastic), Fiber Type (Man-made vs. Natural), Dimensions. |
| ✅ Material Composition Proof | ✔️ | Certificate of Origin or Material Test Report proving if it's "Felt" (Textile) or "Plastic". |
| ✅ Product Photos | ✔️ | Show the entire bucket, texture close-up, and any handles/lids. |
| ✅ Commercial Invoice | ✔️ | Item name: "Felt Bucket" or "Plastic Bucket". Avoid vague terms like "Container". |
| ✅ Packing List | ✔️ | Quantity, weight, and dimensions. |
✅ 2. Declaration Tips (Key Mnemonic)
🔥 "Material First, Function Second! Felt = 5602, Plastic = 3926!"
| Scenario | Correct Declaration | Wrong Practice |
|---|---|---|
| Synthetic Felt Bucket | 5602.90.60.00 |
Misdeclare as Plastic → May trigger scrutiny if texture is ambiguous. |
| Wool/Mixed Felt Bucket | 5602.90.90.00 |
Misdeclare as Plastic → Incorrect chapter. |
| Plastic Bucket (Textured) | 3926.90.10.00 |
Misdeclare as Felt → Incorrect chapter. |
| Fashion "Bucket Bag" (Felt) | Likely 4202 (Handbags) |
Misdeclare as 5602 → If it has straps/handles and is for personal carry, it's a handbag (Tax: 6.5% for plastic handbags, but textile handbags may differ). Check data: Data only shows Plastic Handbags (3926.90.33.00). Felt handbags not in data. |
✅ 3. Special Cases & Handling
| Case | Handling Advice |
|---|---|
| Is it a "Handbag"? | If the felt bucket has a shoulder strap, zipper, and is marketed as a fashion accessory, it may be a Handbag. The data shows Plastic Handbags (3926.90.33.00) at 6.5%. Felt Handbags are NOT in the provided data. If it's a textile handbag, you must check Chapter 42 (Leather/Textile Articles), which is outside the scope of this data. |
| Impregnated Felt | If the felt is coated with plastic (e.g., waterproof backing), it may still be 5602 if the textile character remains essential. |
| Plastic Bucket with Felt Lining | If the outer shell is plastic, declare as Plastic Bucket (3926.90.10.00). The lining is part of the plastic article. |

📌 VI. Common Mistakes & Pitfalls (Lessons Learned)
❌ Mistake 1: Calling a "Plastic Bucket" a "Felt Bucket" to avoid potential tariffs.
👉 Consequence: Customs may reject the declaration, fine, or reclassify with higher duty + penalties.
❌ Mistake 2: Misclassifying a Felt Handbag as a Felt Bucket.
👉 Consequence: If it's a handbag, it should be in Chapter 42. The data only covers Plastic Handbags (6.5%). Felt handbags are NOT in this data. Misclassification leads to delays.
❌ Mistake 3: Ignoring the "Man-Made Fiber" vs. "Other" distinction in Felt.
👉 Consequence: While both are 0% in this data, customs may require proof of fiber type to prevent duty evasion on other textile products.
✅ Correct Practice:
"Felt Bucket, Made of 100% Polyester Non-Woven Fabric, 10L Capacity, No Handles, For Storage" →
5602.90.60.00
"Plastic Bucket, PP Material, 10L Capacity, With Lid" →3926.90.10.00
🎯 VII. Conclusion: Precision Classification Saves Costs!
🎯 Remember Mnemonic:
🔹 "Felt = 5602 (0%), Plastic Bucket = 3926.10 (0%), Plastic Handbag = 3926.33 (6.5%)!"
🔹 "0% Duty for Felt & Plastic Buckets, But Check if It's a Handbag!"
📌 Tips:
- If your "Felt Bucket" is actually a Fashion Handbag (with straps), it is NOT in this data. You must check Chapter 42 (Leather/Textile Articles) for Felt Handbags.
- The provided data only covers Plastic Handbags (3926.90.33.00) at 6.5%. Felt Handbags are outside the scope.
- Always confirm material: Felt vs. Plastic vs. Handbag.
📣 Immediate Action:
📞 Verify material with supplier → Choose HS Code → Declare Accurately → 0% Duty Saved!
🚀 Avoid 6.5% Handbag Tax by Properly Classifying as Bucket!

关于 HS 编码归类
协调制度（HS）是由世界海关组织（WCO）制定的国际贸易商品分类标准。全球 200 多个国家采用 HS 系统作为海关关税、贸易统计和进出口监管的基础。
每个 HS 编码遵循以下层级结构：
- 章（2 位）——商品大类（例如：第 84 章：机器和机械设备）
- 品目（4 位）——章内的更具体分类
- 子目（6 位）——国际通用细分，所有 WCO 成员国统一使用
- 本国细分（8-10 位）——各国自行扩展的细分编码，如美国 HTSUS 10 位编码
正确的 HS 编码归类对于顺利通关、准确缴纳关税和遵守贸易法规至关重要。错误归类可能导致海关延误、多缴关税或罚款。
从CN进口到US时，适用的关税税率可能包括：
- 最惠国（MFN）税率——适用于 WTO 成员国的标准关税税率
- 普通税率——适用于无贸易协定国家
- 贸易救济关税——附加关税，如 301 条款（反倾销）、232 条款（国家安全）或反补贴税
