Carpets and other textile floor coverings
About chapter 57
Chapter 57 covers carpets and other textile floor coverings, whether woven, tufted or knotted: a fairly narrow, well-defined chapter distinguished mainly by construction method (woven vs. tufted vs. hand-knotted).
Classification tip: Hand-knotted rugs are classified separately from machine-tufted carpet, and country-of-origin claims (a carpet marketed by geographic origin) can affect both classification and labeling requirements.

Chapter 57 FAQ
What does HS code chapter 57 cover?
Chapter 57 of the Harmonized System covers: carpets and other textile floor coverings. It belongs to section XI (Textiles & Apparel) and contains 5 four-digit headings, 5701–5705.
How many HS codes are in chapter 57?
Chapter 57 contains 5 four-digit headings and 24 six-digit subheadings. Countries subdivide these further (8–13 digits) in their national tariff schedules, so the full national count is larger.
Is HS code 5701 the same in every country?
Yes. The six-digit level of every code in this chapter is harmonised by the World Customs Organization and identical in all member countries. Digits beyond the sixth (for example the US 10-digit HTS or the EU 8-digit CN) are national and set the actual duty rate.
How do I choose the right code within chapter 57?
Work from the four-digit heading down: pick the heading that best matches your product, then the six-digit subheading that matches its material, form or processing. If two codes seem to fit, customs rules (the General Rules of Interpretation) decide, and when in doubt, confirm with your customs broker before filing.
