Chapter 63 FAQ
What does HS code chapter 63 cover?
Chapter 63 of the Harmonized System covers: textiles, made up articles; sets; worn clothing and worn textile articles; rags. It belongs to section XI (Textiles & Apparel) and contains 10 four-digit headings, 6301–6310.
How many HS codes are in chapter 63?
Chapter 63 contains 10 four-digit headings and 52 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 6301 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 63?
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.
