What decides the code
Disposable face masks of nonwoven fabric are made up textile articles classified under heading 6307, specifically 6307.90.98.70 for disposable face masks.
- The mask is made of nonwoven textile fabric, which places it in heading 6307 as a made up article.
- The mask is disposable and has no replaceable filter, which leads to 6307.90.98.70.
- A mask with a replaceable filter element moves to a different heading, so the filter construction decides the line.
Common mistakes
- Classifying disposable nonwoven masks in heading 6217 is wrong because that heading covers made up clothing accessories, not face masks.
- Using heading 9020 for these masks is wrong because that heading covers other breathing appliances and gas masks, not disposable textile face masks.
- Putting the masks in heading 6505 is wrong because that heading covers hats and headgear, not face coverings.
