What HS code 5804 covers

Heading 5804 is for net-like cloth and for lace. The net side includes tulle and other mesh fabric. A motif is a single shaped piece of lace.

The heading leaves out woven, knitted and crocheted fabrics. So 5804 is about open net and lace, not about ordinary cloth.

Some traders write the same heading as HSN code 5804. The first four digits are the same, and the subheadings below add two more digits to separate net from lace.

If you are not sure where your product fits, try the HS code classifier before you file.

How to choose the right 5804 subheading

Ask three plain questions. First, is the product a net fabric or is it lace? Second, if it is lace, was it made by machine or by hand? Third, if it was made by machine, is it made of man-made fibres or of another textile material?

The answers lead to one of four codes:

  • 580410: tulle and other net fabrics, also called mesh fabric. Use it when the product is a net and not a lace.
  • 580429: machine-made lace of other textile materials, meaning any material that is not a man-made fibre.
  • 580430: hand-made lace.

What is not classified under 5804

Many fabrics look a little like net or lace but sit elsewhere. A knitted or crocheted net is a good example.

Gauze is a different heading. It has its own place in HS 5803 gauze. Narrow woven fabrics go to HS 5806 narrow woven fabrics, and braids, tassels and similar ornamental trimmings go to HS 5808 braids and ornamental trimmings.

Lace and embroidery are close cousins, but they are not the same. Lace sits in 5804. Embroidery in the piece, in strips or in motifs sits in HS 5810 embroidery. Read both descriptions side by side when a product has stitched patterns on it.

You can browse every other heading in this group on the Chapter 58 special woven fabrics, lace and embroidery page.
