Heading 6006

Other knitted or crocheted fabrics

39 declarable lines

Heading 6006 covers knitted or crocheted fabrics that are not pile, not narrow (30 cm or less), not warp knit, and not wide fabrics containing 5% or more of elastomeric yarn or rubber thread. The heading is split first by fiber type: wool or fine animal hair, cotton, synthetic fibers, artificial fibers, and other. Within cotton, synthetic and artificial fibers it is then split by the dyeing or finishing state (unbleached or bleached, dyed, yarns of different colors, printed) and, for cotton and synthetics, by knit construction such as circular knit, double knit or interlock, or other.

How to choose the right subheading

  • Dyeing or finishing state: unbleached or bleached, dyed, of yarns of different colors, or printed.
  • Knit construction: circular knit wholly of fine cotton yarns, double knit or interlock, single knit, or other.
  • Whether the fabric is pile, warp knit, 30 cm or less in width, or contains 5% or more elastomeric yarn, any of which moves it out of 6006.
  • For the residual lines, whether the fabric contains 85% or more by weight of silk or silk waste.
