What decides the code
A shower curtain is classified by its material. Polyester fabric curtains fall in heading 6303, and PEVA plastic curtains fall in heading 3924.
- Material decides the heading. Polyester fabric curtains classify under 6303.92.20.50 as curtains of synthetic fibers.
- Plastic sheeting changes the chapter. A PEVA curtain is a plastic household article and classifies under 3924.90.10.10.
- Fabric curtains must be made up textile articles. A hemmed polyester panel with a header fits heading 6303.
Common mistakes
- Classifying a PEVA curtain under 6303.92.20.50 is wrong because heading 6303 covers textile curtains, not plastic sheeting.
- Classifying a polyester curtain under 3924.90.10.10 is wrong because that plastic provision does not cover woven or knit fabric panels.
- Classifying a shower curtain under 6302 as bed linen or toilet linen is wrong because heading 6303 names curtains and drapes directly.
